65 Comet

Here is the comet I purchased last spring:
I have not made any head way yet. Thought I would try putting a picture on here so to get me motivated.

NEAT !!!   That garage makes it look like a "Sub-Compact" ..

My last "Street Runner" was a '65 Falcon....

Neat little cars ........

Tony it has a 302 and an auto. Trans is bad. It's pretty rough. The plan is to put a MII front end on and SBC. Price of gas I may need to put in a 4cyl.  Going to try body work first though.

How about the Cyclone trim? Pretty cool car for it's day.

carrying on the vomit comet idea...

why not try to replicate some airline bags and stock them in the pockets added to the upholstery..

which motor does it have.. the 260 5 bolt and a C4??    or a 289 5 bolt and a C4..   or something a little more exciting..  like a 390  with a cruiseomatic..

don't forget.. people are desperate for 260/289 5 bolt blocks and transmissions with the proper date codes for their early mustangs.. and even more for the sunbeam tigers...  

5 bolt C 4 bell housings are quite expensive as i recall.

if it were me, i'd keep it all ford (or replica thereof  )
kind of a t'bolt theme,429/460 and a 6 speed (or a auto if you'd rather)
you'll have room with the MII...
