I had two big bumpers sent to me in Pa. from California via the USPS. They wwere wrapped in plastic and shipped for about $40 with the impact plates still attached. They came perfect. Boxing the bumpers put them over the size limit, but the plastic sheeting worked perfectly. :=Okay, some of you guys have asked me to update you regarding the 72 Grabber I just bought and fill you in on the parts that came with it. :=It has taken me two trips with a 5X10 utility trailer to load all the parts and I still haven?t gotten the three engines or the body yet. I have done a preliminary inventory of most of the stuff although the second load of parts are still on the trailer. Have to make room for it before I unload. There are quite a few of the listed items below I intend on keeping. The remainder will all be for sale and I will list the easy to ship stuff on the classifieds for the members to see before I go to eBay with it. I have tried to show what I plan on keeping, at least for now. := := :=1. Grabber front cap including excellent hood with scoops, all in very good condition, one fender needing minor repairs. Complete rear spoiler set? decklid rusted out. (Keeper) :=2. Three 302 engines. (Keep one, the original) :=3. One C4 transmission. :=4. Front and rear bumpers, new, still in wrappers...perfect condition, 71-72. (Keeper) :=5. Cast iron 4V intake manifold. (Keeper) for now :=6. New Holley 4V 600 carb...still in box, in shrink wrap. (Keeper) :=7. Four new chrome Keystone mags w/center caps...still in boxes. (Keeper) for now. :=8. Complete set of chrome lug nuts with locks. (Keeper) :=9. Disc brake setup taken from a 74 Maverick he parted out. (Keeper) :=10. Front cap from the 74 Maverick...very nice condition, one fender with slight damage. :=11. Both front fenders from a 72 Comet, both with slight front end damage. :=12. Grabber bench seats fully recovered, front and rear...never sat in yet. I'm not sure I'll use them, would rather have the buckets. (Keeper) as of now but may sell. :=13. Original wheel covers and trim rings. :=14. New OEM dash pad still in the box. (Keeper) :=15. New front suspension parts (inner and outer tie rods, lower control arms, upper ball joints, idler arm.) (Keeper) :=16. New power steering hoses, including the short ones that connect to the control valve and cylinder. :=17. New power steering control valve. :=18. New power steering cylinder. :=19. New 302 distributor. (Keeper) :=20. New black carpet (J.C. Whitney box) Not sure how good it fits but looks okay. (Keeper) :=21. New chrome oil dip stick and tube. (Keeper) :=22. Two deck lids from a 4 door car, one was a 74 Mav, the other a 72 Comet. :=23. Nice set of Comet tail lamps. :=24. Three drive shafts. :=25. Two fuel tanks?look very good. (Keep one) :=26. Three sets of 302 exhaust manifolds. :=27. Complete setup for factory A/C. (Keeper) for now :=28. Several alternators, starters, 2V carbs, power steering pumps, 302 timing chain covers, compressors, pulleys, brackets, etc. :=29. Numerous head lamps, park lamps, side markers. :=30. Rear brake drums, powder coated. (Keeper) :=31. Front & rear bumpers from 74 Mav?too heavy to keep around, will probably throw away. I had to help this guy pull these out of the attic of his house along with a set of front fenders. Whew! :=32. Three am radios?I know you guys are dying to have these. :=33. Several sets of V8 motor mounts, two cross members, trans mounts. (Keep some) := :=There are still numerous parts I don?t have listed here. It may take me a week or two to really sort through this stuff but if you see something that interest you, let me know. Otherwise watch the classified section soon. :=Thanks for your interest, :=Ray Parrish. curt; I need the front fenders for a comet, I also need a rear bumper for a '72
