    Hi

    I am a new member. I used to own a ´71 Maverick Grabber but that was 25 years ago. I missed that car so much so I bought a ´73 Grabber 3 weeks ago.

    That is one of only 3 examples left on the road in Iceland. There are 2-3 more in various stages of rebuild (incl one Comet GT).



    My old Grabber, unfortunately I heard it was destroyed only about 3-4 years ago.

    This is my new car. It´s in pretty good shape but needs some minor work.

    Your photos wouldn't load on my work computer earlier, for some reason, but I can see them now at home.

    Great looking car :thumbs2:

    Gees I thought Mavs and comets were rare around here.
    Wonder if they hold higher value in Iceland??
