    I saw these a while back and have been trying to get ahold of the owner with no luck. I talked to the neighbor and he said the owner had recently passed away and the wife had moved in with the daughter. I wrote them a letter yesterday in hopes of getting a chance to buy one or both of them. Wish me luck... 205.jpg 206.jpg

    They look to both be 1972's.

    I have always been fond of that brown Grabber paint scheme highlighted in yellow. (red pinstipes, I think, too). Best of luck!
