    Well I just got the Marti Report on this car. Here is the information I recieved:

    Your car was one of:

    1,748 with this paint code
    7 with these paint/trim codes
    15,861 with these engine/transmission codes
    577 ordered from this DSO
    5,232 with interior trim option

    For the 1972 2-door grabber.

    I guess 1 of 7 with the paint and trim codes must be rare.

    Cruzin Illusion, Nice start for your Grabber. It's always good to find them unmolseted.
    I found mind similar to yours on ebay. It would be 5 year ago in October.
    Best of luck.

    John
