Pushrod91 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 71 Grabber Maverick. It has a straight 6, auto trans and 7.5 rear. All that will change soon. Itll be a EFI Nitrous motor. Here's pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det_Riot Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Hell yes!! Can't wait to this come together! Windsor based I assumed? 302 or 351? Sticking with the slosh box or going manual?Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod91 Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Have a donation fox coming. Gonna switch all from that for now. 5.0/T-5/8.8 Go Nitrous. Then build a bigger motor later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95riosnake Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 I couldn't even wrap my head around an outdoor lift here in pgh... anything outside gets ruined within a year lol. I could see the benefits of an outdoor lift, get tan while you wrench on cars lol. That's about the straightest way a man could ever get a tan.
