    1972 Grabber
    Just acquired a 1972 Grabber recently. It's almost all there including the original engine which runs well so far. I haven't quite decided what to do with it yet, but since it has not fallen victim to any hacking yet I am considering keeping it totally original as far as the body and interior are concerned and maybe update the engine/trans and possibly the suspension. But only bolt-on items that can easily be changed back to original. It has not had a stereo or speakers installed, so there are no ugly holes to repair. The only original pieces missing are the air cleaner and carb. I plan to check out the member's cars to see what wheels I might like. Looking forward to some fun times.
