    I know where the owner works and I'm going by there tomorrow.
    I already know the 69 isn't for sale but the Mav would be a good buy. It has some sort of high back buckets and a 4 speed too. The interior is black like mine so that would be righteous.

    I really need to get back with that old guy and buy that 69.5 I found last year.

    I had Keystone Classics on my 84 Monte Carlo about 16 years ago, loved them because they weren't Centerlines or Craigars(nothing against either one, I just like different things).

    Quick way to tell if it is a real Grabber... look at the VIN, the third and fourth numbers will be 93 if it's a real Grabber. 91 if it's not. Say it's a factory 302 '71 Grabber... the VIN will be something like 1K93F100000. Or, if it were a six cylinder non Grabber, it would be like 1K91L100000
