COMET CENTRAL

The front grille area reminds me of a Studebaker or Rambler. The rear reminds me of a 61 Belaire. And the mirrors are just wrong... But the rest of the Build IMO, is pretty nice. Would like to know what engine, but someone put some work into it. Here is a video that shows much more than the pictures...

"............................... Change the radical front, rear and exterior mirrors to stock or stock ish, cool custom cruiser. I Agree! A lot of nice work. As Fred said not a fan of the front/rear/ and mirrors. But the chassis is pretty sweet. Bet it runs and handles pretty nice! Curious to what ...

Guys, Thanks for checking on me. A couple of things about the signature picture. A. I had larger tires on the rear, So now the rear tires are 1 inch smaller. B. The new front springs have raised the front end at least an inch. So the Comet is more level and almost feel a little low in the back end....

Try depressing the throttle pedal to the floor twice, wait a couple seconds, then turn key.

It's always a crap shoot getting something for nothing.

HeII, Now a days it's a crapshoot when your paying lol

The WR 5 are preset at .040 which would be ok for electronic ignition but if you don't have electronic then gap would be better at .035 . Would give better spark. Points, cap, rotor, wires all good? Weak s...

My 8” is 3 degrees and that is what my engine is so that is what I had them make this one to. Can buy wedges to go between the pad and spring to adjust if needed.

Thanks!

LOU
