Re: Rocket's Comet Build

Getting close to time again. I recently got a new job after almost 20-years...that’s been kicking my ass a little! Combine that with the kids sports, home improvements, and my needing a break after 4-years of late nights with the Comet... Yep, basically just drove it all summer... :lol: :lol: :lol: ...

Re: steering box and linkage

Probably a Granada-type spindle. As stated pics are a huge help. If there are any Foooooord part #’s on the spindles that’s good info also. In a nutshell, it doesn’t take that many parts to do it right...though you can use that many or more and do it WRONG! :D :lol: :lol:

Re: Catching up with the bro

Love those years!! There was a ‘68 Cyclone at the last show I went to...man!! I stared at it for a loooong time. The comparatively huge engine compartment made me grit my teeth! Think about how much knuckle skin you could’ve saved!!! :D :lol: :lol:

Re: Lavron's '64 Build Thread

Bed liner to coat the wheel...genius!! :D :lol: I’m shamelessly gonna steal that idea. Need something to start with as it starts getting cold! Your progress looks great!! Dunno if I mentioned before, but I would use the coated steel brake line for tight bends. The NiCopp stuff is great to work with ...
