good news is...my guy at the salvage yard called today. he said they got a Mav. in and if i wanted to look at it he would set it aside. i told him i would be out to look at it. I called Mike to see if he wanted to ride and he said yes. when we got there this is what we saw... '72 Grabber 250 6 cyl. C-4 power steering 4 new tires w/stock beauty rings and hubcaps all new frontend parts new brakes 98% rust free new seat covers new dash cap new carpet new rear window seal ...... Attached Thumbnails i bought the car and Mike drove it to my house for me... ......
We walked out to the car and were wondering if there was a chance that it would run. Frank was standing on the driverside of the car..so I opened the Passenger side door, Leaned in and got the Keys from ontop of the visor,stuck it in the ignition and as soon as the starter engaged the car fired right up instantly.We were amazed! The car drives great and the Brakes felt as good as any drum brakes I ever driven with. I actually enjoyed the drive to Franks house. Note what I am pointing at in the second picture ...Pink Thong panties hanging from the rearview mirror ...at least we know that the previous owner had some fun in this car. Then again Mavericks trend to have that effect on the ladies you know.
...i found a piece of paper in the car with a name and number on it. i called the number and talked to the owners Dad. i told him i was looking for some background on the car. one thing i found out was the car has...86000...orginal miles and he is the second owner...also...his Dad has spent over...$2500...on the car in 4 months... ...more later on what else i found out...
