    By the way, How is the white grabber doing? My wife really wanted that car. She loves the white interior and the three speed .....

    I can't find the magazine. I try to always support the Maverick community by buying any magazine that I find out has a Maverick in the issue.

    Closest thing I could find was Hemmins Motor News.

    White grabber is great collecting tons of NOS parts so hard to decide what to do keep it all original or restomod or something in between. I missed that NOS rear defogger on ebay I think you got it Bob right ? It's the September issue article is in depth and GREAT pictures love it congratulations to FRANK!!!!!!!!

    Thanks! I'll be looking for that issue at Barnes and Noble. Yes that was me that got the NOS RR defroster on ebay. It was a buy it now and and I was looking for one. At the price it was offered I had to do it. Did you want to trade it for the white Maverick ? LOL Please don't make any mods that can't be reversed so when you sell it to me I can make it stock again. I would like factory air add to it though. Im getting to old for cars with no air!
    Later ... Bob

    I got mine today and thought is about time more magazines cover these cars. The cover date is September 2009 for those who are looking
