    Hi Everyone,

    My first car was a '72 Maverick Grabber and due to some luck, looking and digging, I have the car back again. It's going to need a lot of TLC to get it back to where it was but I'm going to start fixing it up this summer. I'm pretty sure I'm going to need A LOT of parts and advice.

    :Welcome: from Atlantic Canada! That'll be a nice car! I have always enjoyed the bright colours on these cars! 1972 had some of the wildest ones!!

    I know where my first Maverick is, but I haven't seen it in over 13 years.

    Hopefully it's NOT this car... If it is, there's lots of work to do! :D
