    I just saw a 70 Ford maverick 4x4 on a used car lot near my home. It is grabber orange and has the grabber grille and hood. The windshield is marked '$1950 obo. It looks like the body was added to some kind of old jeep. I have pictures but at this time do not have a scanner to run them. I live in western NC near the Tenn. and Ga border.

    If done right a Mav bolted onto an old Bronco chassis might be pretty cool to have.

    I think I remember seeing a picture of that somewhere (or one like it) - might've been on here.

    I saw one done with a mustang convertable. They used a old bonco frame and they length the body some. It look good when they were done.
