Well, After about 2 years of not even looking at my car, I'm putting it back together. I've spent alot of time wondering if I should restore it, or hot rod it? After alot of contemplating I think I'll hot rod it. I've collected alot of NOS parts to restore it to a 100% Orig. White/ Orange '74 Grabber, but thats not what I want anymore, so......... I'll be pulling off those big bumpers that I fought for, for sooo long, and putting on that Grabber hood thats been sitting in the corner for 10 years... I only need a few small parts ( which is unbeliveable) and I'm back in business. Dave
Dave, sounds like a plan! Most guys don't realize that the objective is the FIRST thing to nail down (Forgive me if I'm preaching to the choir). I spent a lot of hour$ on my Maverick to make it a street/strip car only to regret the time/money because I changed my mind - strip only now. That has mad my life a lot easier. No more pondering what's the best trade-offs for both applications. Another thing I should've done was to set a budget. I could've been at the track months ago, but I allowed myself to go WAY over budget - and I still don't have a car to take to the track. Good luck in you endeaver! It'll be a blast! Rick
Good luck with your car dave!! Do you plan on selling the NOS parts now that you have changed direction?
Hey Dave let me know what little parts you might be needing I may be able to help ya out I have a garage full of stuff and I am trying to clean it up alittle.
Hi Dave! Glad to see you're still a Maverick fan! Have you decided on a color scheme? Are you going to stay White and Orange? Keep us updated on your progress.
