    The guy who built it was going for a Stallion/Grabber tribute car. Personally, the Stallion decals along side the Grabber badging seems a bit odd...but otherwise I absolutely love the look of the car.

    Great looking car. Doesn't seem like you will have to do much work on it since everything looks perfect. Unless of course you have plans for any upgrades.

    Removed the cheesy AutoZone lettering:

    That "SVT" badge on the grill comes off next.

    May remove the Stallion badges...however, there is a big stallion on the hood, so it will be a "Stallion/Grabber" tribute regardless.
