    Hey guys,
    Been on and off this forum for a while. Used to own a couple of mavericks but for one reason or another always ended up getting rid of them.

    Anyways I just got my hands on a 1972 Maverick.
    It's got a 302, headers, and a holley. C4 tranny with a hurst floor shifter. I have to get me a marti report on it before I start calling it a grabber.

    It has the grabber hood on it and looks the part but I'll let the marti report do the work. I should have it sometime tomorrow evening and I'll attach it to this post along with some pics once I get them.

    Welcome back, just look at your vin#... it will tell you if its a grabber. It will read as follows...2_93_____ The 93 denotes a grabber.
