    If you had a Maverick that was a project car, sanded down, no interior, and money and given the options of cloning it into a Grabber, Sprint or Stallion ONLY which one would you pick and why?

    I love the Silver Black Stallions personally. :)

    I voted Grabber.
    However, one of the top 10 cars on this site, easily, is Dan Starnes red/black Stallion. :drool:

    if i could actually own a real version of one of those 3 i'd go for the sprint. i thought about making mine a stallion clone since it is a '76 anyway but actually making it correct with the big bumpers is no fun. grabbers, well i really dont like the grabber hood even though im a big fan of the spoiler

    trying to decide what i want my car to look like when it rolls out of the paint shop just totally boggles my mind so i gave up a long time ago, but i know it'll hit me one day

    What's your reason for owning the real version? I thought the Stallions were rarer than the Sprint even though it is rare too. :)

    I vote for Stallion. Comet hoodscoop, grabber spoiler, small bumpers, and bobcat tailights, exhaust cutouts in the rear valance, black tinted glass would be my suggestions for the exterior. Pack it with a 351W, T5, 3.55 gears, with mag500's, 215R15 on the front, 255R17 on the back. Okay I'll stop daydreaming...for now.
