    Hello,

    New member here. My name is Greg and I'm from VA. I previously had a '71 Comet GT (lime green with black stripes) with a 6 cylinder and an automatic and a '73 Comet GT (white with red stripes) with a 302 and a 3 speed manual.

    My uncle just purchased a Grabber Blue '71 Maverick Grabber with a 302 and an automatic. We just got back from taking the car to the Carlisle All-Ford Nationals in PA.

    Here is a few pics of the car.

    Thanks guys!! My uncle's car got a lot of attention this weekend at Carlisle. There were 7 Mavericks in the show (4 Grabbers, 1 Sprint and 1 regular 2 door) and 2 Comets (1 GT and 1 regular 2 door).

    Since my uncle got his it has made me start looking to maybe find me another one to play around with.
