Hello All,
I recently purchased a 1963 Comet Convertible S-22 From an old guy up the street. I was helping him clean his gutters and noticed what looked like a car under his carport. So i asked him about it. He said that he put it back there when the brakes went out in 1974. The inspection sticker still says 1974. So in an effort to keep the car in good shape he threw rugs on top of it. So needless to say it is covered in surface rust and the back 2ft of the car didn't fit under the car port. So in the end the top has rotten away but the interior is amazing. The kicker it only has 15104 original miles but i needs some body work. With that being said i'm looking for some rear quarter panels. Seems like no-one is making them. So please message me if anyone

Looks like a pretty complete car, I am sure you will get the sheetmetal worked out one way or the other but all the little trim pieces will eat you up so good you have them.
See Ya,
