    I don't know if anyone remembers me mentioning a Green 1971 Maverick Grabber in Georgia some time ago that I was trying to buy, the owner never would give me a price on it, well the other day I recieved a text saying he was ready to sell it, I inquired about the price and he stated he wanted $2500.00 for it, ok ya got me interested, because it had the 351 W engine that someone had put a cam in and flubbed it up so it wound up with bent valves, and had the 4 speed behind it, well I got pics and more info today on it, it no longer has an engine or tranny in it...gone, it is fairly rust free but needs a bit of work on the driver side quarter where there are pin holes rusted, grill and radiator are removed (there but removed) and the interior needs work, I can't see paying that kind of money for it...if he will come down about $1500.00 I would consider it then...he said he would work with me on the price but we shall see what he comes up with.
    PICS....cuz I know ya want them! I only got the 4 on my phone.
    Comments welcome....

    Allrighty. :tiphat:

    It looks to be a real Grabber. As Dave mentioned......cool color combination. With a black interior, you could easily change the color if you desired. I agree...$1500 would be a nice price. Wish it had AC....but that might be wishing for too much. :D

    Well I won't hear from him until Bike Week which is at the end of this month, hopefully he is selling alot of stuff and making good money and will give me a deal, he is a vendor there at the hotel I DJ at, and yes the color is just what I am wanting.

    Ok I spoke with him again today about the Grabber, we may be finally getting somewhere on the price, he mentioned $1200.00 and I said you CAN do better than that can't you, he is gonna call back in about an hour or so, If I can get him down to $1000.00 I am gonna get it, I have checked with the Fla. DMV about getting a title as it has none from Ga. and that will be no problem to get...now it's the waiting game.....tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock.......enough I need the final bell to ring!!

    $1000 not bad. I wouldn't pay any more for it. Big project, but a good start anyway.

    I haven't seen a decent Maverick for sale anywhere around me in a couple years. If you like it, jump on it.

    I'd pay the $1200 if he throws in the magnet mount CB antenna...
