    The one with the least rust is the best. Grabbers are nice, but so are Sprints and Stallions. Any of them can be made to look good. Whatevers best is the one you like.:):)

    Too many cars on here with different variations. Original cars are nice no doubt. So many nice not original cars on here though.
    Look at Joes car up there. It changes like the weather. Hes done what he thinks looks good. Luckily he has good taste and the car improves.(y) I'd be disappointed if he made it the way Ford did.
    My own car shares some of the same direction as Joes. Personal changes, some subtle but enough to make it different. Both have that sleeper/original type of look even though they are far from it. I like that people(not Maverick people) think my car is original. I take it as a compliment that my look accomplished the direction I intended.

    I do really like the Sprint as a factory piece.
