    Ok folks, here's the real deal on "Pink Mavericks"

    Do a search on Mary Kay cars, see what ya all come up with.

    You have to dig, but you'll find it.

    I have a story on a pink car.

    Pink aside...
    What is that pale green called? Looks like seafoam green, or a very light green-blue.
    I want to say Grabber green, but I don't think it is. Grabber green on a Stang is much more green.

    There are two different Grabber greens. 1970 came out with the first one and it is the pale version which you are probably speaking of. I have a 71 Grabber green which is much brighter green and has metallic in it. I like both of the colors very much and I think they are both pretty rare. There are probably only a handful of Grabber Green Mavericks on the board...both shades.

    Lonnie......I would say that is pretty rare....but not as rare as black.

    If there is a factory pink Maverick, wouldnt there have to be 4 more? I understood they only did custom colors in lots of 5.

    Wow this thread is old. We now of course, know of a factory purple '71 Maverick that belongs to member HOMERMAV. The color code on his door tag is blank and it has a special order DSO IIRC.
