    Well the guy just called me about the maverick grabber. I left a note
    in the door yesterday. He will sale it but wants to keep the engine
    and tranny, 302 c4 stall, to put into a pinto. Well he doesnt seem to keep
    up with what he has he offered it to me for 300-400 bucks.....WOOOOOHOOOO
    and it has the Grabber hood and has a clear title stating maverick grabber. it
    is a 1970 also.:bananaman Guess I will have to decide which one to start on first
    this 1970 grabber or the 1973 grabber in the garage...I need a bigger garage.

    Hey Robert

    Hey Robert, I used to live in Lenoir City back in 92, I lived right off of Turkey Creek Rd. I had a cellular telephone store called The Wireless Warehouse in Farragut. Man I miss Knoxville, great scenery..........I also miss the BB-Q at Calhouns, is it still there? I can still taste it.......mmmmmm....time for a road trip. :bananaman

    Doing more junkyard pullin this saturday

    Yep we now have 3 calhouns around now.

    I am going back up on the mountain saturday morning to get more parts
    Even if i can't use them now, can't stand to see them crushed but I
    don't have the room to store entire cars. Going to get the 74/75 front
    bumper(looks great), rear glass and trim, full set of disc brakes, and some
    front fenders, doors........... hope it all fits in the truck. Since he is crushing them he is almost giving the parts away, so I am going to get all I can.
    If anyone is around knoxville you are welcome to go.
    Robert
