    I'm looking at a 71 Grabber that the guy is claiming is all original. Here's my question. Did 71 Grabbers have the "Grabber" cutout in the side stripe? I've got him down to $2500.00 and I'm about to pull the trigger but just wanted to ask about that since I couldn't remember. It's a 302 Bucket seat floor shift Grabber with no rust!! :)

    Thanks.

    It was no "cut out".....it was a silk screen imprinted onto the side stripe.
