    Here is the latest of the collection. 71 Grabber with a built 302. Only 250 miles on the rebuilt. Black vinyl top in flawless and the interior is about the same. I aquired every record on the car right down to the original window sticker. The stack of records and receipts is 3" thick. Needs some rust repair and paint and she'll be a beauty. The hood under the lip is rust free. Now it has 14" cragars, and I got the original 5 lug 14" slotted mags that came on the car. Even has factoy air and the counselette. Only bad thing is I will now have to get rid of one or both of the others.

    I think it's ugly. You should sell it to me so you don't have to look at it anymore. :huh:

    That's purty!
    Looks very much like a 72 I had, less the vinyl top...
    Wish I still had that one.
