COMET CENTRAL

And see there might be alternatives to a normal SBF build Even if that is what most will likely do not saying a 6 build is the answer someone may want to bui a 4 or even a V6 whatever trips tier trigger or they may have access to, my I6 build was a challenge for sure but rewarding when it fired off ...

summit kinda teed me off when I was chatting with them earlier I am looking now at a plain grey Single stage to paint my Comet kinda back to how I was going to paint it with Rustoleum but with 2k single stage instead I just wanted a paint chip of the color I chose to see if it was really the color I...

And what caused the trunk rust, besides the carpet? The leaky (dried and cracked up) trunk seal, which also rusted the trunk l...

Going to try and move all my posts here that are relevant to the motor build and install on my 64 Comet build

Joe it's handy to have a build thread,or just a plain thread if it is already built. Was thinking about 'Joe's Tinkering Thread' :lol: Joe I think a tinkering thread is fine mine may morph to different areas as I try and gEt something usuablE like lavron’s engine thread or lavron’s air ride or lavr...

Got a set from a 65 already off the car. I wonder what the difference is?

I think they would be the same only difference might be where some of the suspension bolt holes are but really the 64 needs converted to 65 steering anyway while one is working there:P

Nothing will happen today still hot and dr appointments this afternoon so I have to try and stay somewhat clean so bondo sanding is noththe way to do that :c

Just piddling around today, waiting for the kit and jets to arrive for my Holley double-pumper. Installed the proper air cleaner decal and dome light lens. Still not certain about total displacement but after purchasing a pen light and small inspection mirror, I found the casting number on the bloc...

Just a heads up if you see any weirdness or broken photo links just hold tight a few days while we work thisouteverything May appear normally as well

Rebuilding my side windows is upcoming for me, not a cheap rebuild but after 55= years they need it, going to use the best componets I can so I never have to deal with it again I have been advised here that Steele rubber sells the best fitting and quality when replacing the wing windows etc.will hav...

AIN'T nothing like a good plan and for it to come togrther,,,,we all like to see the results,,,,the most important thing on a build is not to burn yourself out on WORK.....so many do this very thing,work every wakening hour they can ,then all of a sudden they are exhausted and tired,then the projec...

I want to install a Mustang accelerator pedal on my 65 Caliente 289 4 speed. The stock 64-66 Mustang pedal is the “floating” type - i.e. not attached to the floor. Does anyone know if the Mustang pivot rod (the rod that connects the accelerator pedal to the carburetor through the firewall) is inter...

Bet it's somewhere close!! The 3/8" with 4.175 BS is likely closer to where mine would end up. I plan on leaning on it pretty hard (semi-delusional auto-x plans!) so I wanted at LEAST a half inch, better 3/4! I doubt it'll move that much but guess we'll see. Jim - You gotta be champing at the BIT m...

Hey gents, Tax season has paid off and I got the go-ahead from the wife to use some of our refund to go towards a new set of wheels/tires for my Caliente. Tire/Wheel sizing is not my specialty, so I am a little intimidated at the prospect of figuring it all out. I am looking to get a set of Cragar ...

Since my last question I learned my inline 6 conversion has a 7" rear end. My friend told me this would probably not get me out of the driveway is I was lucky... It'll get you out of the driveway. The rest depends on how you drive the car. If you plan on dumping the clutch at 6K with cheater slicks...
