    Received my new '75 Grabber this past weekend. Been sitting for a long time. Original paint, interior, pretty much everything except typical wear items. I think the front drum is locking up a bit. Glad to be part of the community, planning on attending the MCCI gathering in July.

    Love the shag carpet mats. A new darker carpet would look great in that nice interior.
    How many miles?

    Hi TM :
    Nice looking Maverick ! Those big bumpers look great when they are ' tucked ' too .. I ran them for awhile on my
    75 Comet without the inserts and I lost 88 pounds by doing so. Not too difficult . Car looks really straight .
