    If you get to Grants Pass you can see my orange one. It's the only Grabber in town that I know of.

    I havent seen any grabber hoods for sale, I think one of the green grabber that i mentioned above is for sale tho (heard from sumone else that one of em was) . I dont see many 2 door mavs around in medford, mostly 4 doors that have been abused way beyond acceptable.

    Hey Maverick newb did you buy that 73 from Mark in Gold Hill? He had a green 73 with a 250 and A/T. He said the guy he sold it to put a 351W in it.

    Do you know of any wrecking yards around that have Mavericks? I found one in Central Point that has two 4 door Comets, but nobody else in Medford-Grants Pass area that I have looked at has any.

    I heard from a friend that action-u-pull-it wrecking yard has a few mavricks and comets, not sure how many or what they are. Still waiting for some nice weekend weather to go check it out. The auto wrecker with the two four door,s is the one on the corner of wilson and table rock road ? Central Point auto wreckers said they had at least one but I have not checked it out yet.
