    Maybe. But, are you considering how you did on the back end of owning that car?:bowdown:

    Getting that Grabber for that price is definitely going to be in the top three deals for this year.:thumbs2:

    Since you are feeling a little guilty ..... send her the other $500 so she gets the $3000 she was asking for ..... :rofl: .... you will sleep better at night!

    Awesome ... so it was for sale on the side of the road and nobody bought it? Lucky dog! Let's see some more pictures! Like paint markings you are talking about ... also engine compartment pictures. Pretty rare to find a 100% original car so all the original stuff needs to be documented for us "Concourse guys" ... :)

    A no rust, bucket seat, floor shift Grabber is worth $2500 no matter how many miles are on it ... That's the type of car thats begging for a show quality restoration ... ditch the aftermarket A/C though ... :)

    You'll see a General Lee there from Cumming, GA ... he owns the upholstery shop that did my Comfortweave buckets for me ...
