    actually i know a guy down here trying to sell a really nice 71 2 door. its in primer now but has just about anything you could ask( i dont feel like typing it all out lol) for including a 500hp 11 sec 1/4 351W under the hood. he wants 7 grand i believe. only thing youd have to do is get it painted the way you want

    shoot me a PM if your intrested. its in northern DE so probably not that far a drive from NY

    Welcome aboard 427! :Handshake Love the Cobra too!
    Yes, that lime color is a factory color on some 71 Grabbers. I own one that is suppose to be that same color. I built it for my son but he talked me into painting it yellow for him. I wanted to keep it lime but he was the one that was gonna drive it everyday so he won. :)

    If I'm not mistaken, someone posted more pics of that car on here and it has some pretty good quarter panel damage on the other side. Make sure you get more pics of it!
