    I got my 71 tan Grabber today and it is in better shape than I thought. The hood is really nice with no rust. The interior is a little tired and the curb feelers are on thier way out but I am pleased with the car.

    That is alot better than the green Grabber. When are you going to tear it down for a full body restoration? Are you staying with the I6?

    I need to come and see you soon. Your neighbor at the tire shop, Gary, is my son-in-law's uncle.

    Real nice. Ive never seen a Grabber that color before. You going to keep it that color? And if you tell me that is your garage I am going to have to move my garage envy from Frank to you.
