    I am not a huge Stallion fan, but that is sweet.

    Piranha? More like a Barricuda (insert Heart guitar rip HERE)


    How about a Stallion Sprint Grabber GT clone. It would have a Grabber Hood, an LDO interior, a Stallion paint package with the USA crests on the rear quarters, and a Comet GT stripe kit.

    The only Stallion i have ever seen that i like. Take it as you will but this is just my opinion not out to offend anyone.
    Stallions are just a paint job a ill attempt to try and make a big bumper Mav appealing
    Sprint,if i ever bought one the first thing i would do is paint it and change the interior to any color but that gaudy blue and white.
    It's your car you can build what you like,personally i like the way your car looks. It's different it's not blue,red or white,lets see someone have the nads to paint their car brown,gold or avocato green something different!

    I find that everyone who thinks they know Grabbers thinks they were all factory V8 cars! ...

    I kind of went on a rant,but just had this same conversation with a friend with a 68 Firebird about color his wife wants it blue and there are 4 blue Camaros/Firebirds in my small town alone.
    I'll be the first one to say i hate the fact my car is blue but i'm stuck with blue,silver or white because if this flippin blue interior.I guess i could go black might look ok.
