    Hey guys, you gotta pick up the March issue of Popular HotRodding. There is a 5 page spread on a beautiful green Grabber belonging to Lonnie Schulz of Lima Ohio. This is a beautiful 10 second street car with one shot at the strip showing a few inches of that clear stuff under the front tires.
    If I get time this evening when I get home I'll try to get some pics on here unless someone can get it done first.
    WAY TO GO LONNIE!!! (Blown76Mav)
    Congrats!!!

    LOL...It looks almost like grabber green. The name of the color is dark aqua poly...and believe me, the blue ain't showin up. :)
    That's okay though...I like it just the way it looks. (y)

    I was wondering when someone was going to comment on the great article.

    It really does look green on paper. I was thinking I liked that shade of green, too.
