    these links are not the cars that were on Horsepower. The yellow one had nicer rims and i dont believe it had a turbo on it.

    the brown one was just as Rmiller described.

    both were very nice cars

    I agree. I only got a blink of the cars and I saw the entire show. I do recall the all brown car and the Grabber stripes. They don't give any respect to Mav's/ Comets on those tv shows.:cry::mad:

    what was he saying about only 25,000 built. That's incorrect.

    He was talking about the Dodge Lancer, not the mavericks, Joe is a Ford guy I think he would know that over 25K were made :D

    And he wasn't even referring to that lancer, he meant the older ones like this:

    Oh duh, lol forgot Dodge made lancers back then... Isn't it weird that Chrysler built B-29's in WWII, and Mitsubishi built the Zeros that tried to shoot them down then 30 years later they form an alliance...

    I believe the brown grabber is the one that was at the Gathering last weekend. Owner is Larry Radcliff

    Yes, that is Larry's Grabber. That is a beautiful, rust-free black plate California car. V8 with a 5-speed. Spent a lot of time visiting with him at the Gathering. He has had (and still has) some other very nice Fords.
