    Found in the "Wild".

    Saw this one in Cincinnatti years ago. Had a very nice roof on it. Very clean!

    Finally able to post here

    Never had the opportunity to get in on this thread because I never see them around, but on a trip to Lancaster, PA yesterday, I spotted this green one on a car carrier heading north on Rt. 100 around Exton, PA. Caught up to it in heavy traffic and my wife snapped this pic.

    Nice looking '71-'72 Grabber (clone?) with Ranger wheels and Tennessee plates. It was being hauled with 4 other older cars to parts unknown. Really cool to see it up on the upper deck. Just wanted to share.:D
