    Nice looking car, vin wont tell you if it is a Grabber or not on a 70 but doesnt appear to be a Grabber but many things change with these cars over the years and owners.

    I would have drove a ways to pick up that beauty also :thumbs2: Are you going to add your special touch to it ?

    Looks like a nice little car (whether it's a "real" Grabber or not). Good find and don't worry about the Grabber part. That doesn't account for fifty cents worth of value anyway. Have fun!:thumbs2:
