    Good idea...little "loud" for my taste, but great idea nonetheless.

    Keep the ideas coming....I am going to do some paint/body work to mine soon. Still thinking about a few different paint schemes. Only one requirement. Needs to be simple since I will probably do most of the work here at home.

    maybe a standerd grabber sceme with the overall car color gt blue.the standerd grabber side stripes vista orange with the hood panel as well.but have the flairs on the snouts
    to set it off.ten put a nice set of 14" rims that are not flashy but still have the 70s race look.

    and exstend it back,up,and around and paint it like this then put a white pach in front of the hood scoop! and the same rims. i might do this one!:29:

    I did a couple of quick "shops" on a blue maverick grabber from the forum. I didn't have alot of time to spend but I think it would look great. Definitely doable.

    i think it would look good. on the photo shop photos i do prefer the first one where the orange doesn't wrap around the nose.

    Hey Kurt,
    Here is the AMC/Comet combo with the torq wheels. I think this one looks awesome too. Ed

    I prefer the photo shop photo that has the orange wrapping around the nose. I like to be different I guess!

    I'd like to see it in standard Grabber stripes.
    Blue body, orange stripes, and black outline of the stripes.
    Rather than going over the roof and such.
    Also, no numbers...

    Edit: Added pic.
    Gotta imagine the tail panel in orange and the tail light bezels in black...
