: I like the Bobcat lights, there's a Maverick here in El Paso with those tail lights. I thought it might be one of those Shelby mavericks since I live here on the border. I don't know if those had different taillights like the Shelby Mustangs had... who knows?

: : Thanks. It's a '73 and it's bright yellow-gold metallic. My city driving fuel economy didn't change a bit with the 3.55s but obviously the highway mileage is worse. The car isn't actually for sale unless someone wants to give me $50,000 for it (every man has his price, right?). The Bobcat taillights work just like Maverick/Pinto lights and the inner sections are just fake lenses. You could make them functional but you'd have to drill big holes and I didn't want to do that. I sent Stefan a picture of the interior but I don't know if he has posted it on the site....

: : : Hey T.L. I was just reading through the first message board and came across your car for sale(June 98), I noticed that your car sounds almost identical to mine accept that mine is a real '72 Grabber, it has a 2.79 rear end(daily driver fuel economy), MSD ignition, Hurst floor shifter(wish I could have found one of the origonals), Sony CD player, and it's yellow with black Shelby racing stripes, everything else is the same though. Saw the pictures of your's too, very cool!! Dig the Bobcat tail lights to, do the inner lights work or are they simply reflectors? I'm in the prosses of getting my pictures to Stefan so that I can get it posted too.
