    That is one of the best looking cars I have ever seen, I really love the Eleanor look, but on a Mav it takes different dimensions, and it works.

    The 71 Grabber clone I have will have a very "Eleanor" look to it I plan for it to be about the same color silver,with Grey and black interior, but mine wont have the side pipes ,and it will run a grabber hood and grill.

    JW Enterprises makes billet grills. www.customgrills.com I emailed them in 2005 & I think he said about $390 or $400 to make one. You will have to send him the old grill though. I have a Comet & I could not find a Maverick grill here. I have not seen his work either. I found out about him from a place here in Memphis. I also emailed the company overseas. I think they have a program that changes English to the language they speak. He said he don't think the skirt can be found in the U.S. but they can ship one here. I have to figure out how much it cost though. I have never ordered anything from another country. Maybe some else can also email them to help me out. I think the side skirts are made by them or modified by them to fit a Maverick.

    They are from 94ish Mustang Back when SVO was still the Ford Performance division. They should still be available.
