    I am searching for parts to restore a 1972 Ford Maverick Grabber. It was actually my first car and I kept it. Just could not bring myself to sell it. I gave it to my oldest son whom is currently serving in the UNITED STATES NAVY. He will be out in October 2013, but his wife still has two years left. I am located in a small town called Rio Vista, Texas. My son and daughter in law are stationed in Lemoore, California. I am hoping to have parts for us at the end of the two years when they will be returning home. We started restoring before he left and have. Not had the time to finish it. I am retired on medical disability so my capabilities are limited as far as physical labor. I am however able to search for parts that we need and hopefully will have them all when they return home in Febuary of 2015.
