COMET CENTRAL

I put the Street or Track coil over front suspension in my 65 Cyclone along with their adjustable front strut rods. Very good setup and the guy lives not too far from me so I just went to his house to pick it all up. I have the same setup in my 66 Mustang. Put the Mustang suspension in back in 2008,...

I have seen them with 4 speeds, but I do not know if they were originally 4 speeds.

If it were just one year older and a starliner then I would be all in. But not a fan of that formal roof line.

I didn't think about them being out of stock. I've got everything except the tail panel piece, and I have an idea on making that piece. Thanks - Dan If you have access to the tool and ability, then go for it and share your results. I bet a someone skilled in machine work could make a cool tail pane...

Probably not in stock, a lot of that stuff has been out of stock since covid. The time to get these things is when you see them. Hard to find when you actually need them. Good luck. Also, that cyclone emblem is just the foil insert. The backing badge is the hard part.

There is a guy in Chillocothe, Ohio that has many of the parts you need listed on Facebook marketplace. He does not have prices but in the pictures I see some of the stuff you need.

Glad you are back and this time with a Comet makes it a tiny bit better than before. No one make that cyclone badge, very hard to find. The foil cyclone insert is reproduced, but good luck with that emblem base. The other parts you are missing pop up on eBay often, just keep an eye out.

Pat, that sounds interesting. My local Shelby club has a chili cook off every year. Of course ours all must use Carol Shelby chili mix. Last year my wife won making her "race day chili" with brisket. Below is a link to her recipe. I think we will try your recipe sometime soon, sounds good. https://m...

I feel like there have been a lot of defective new parts lately. Glad you figured it out.

That's a nice find. What are your plans?

Where you from? I will keep and eye out around here. There was a 62 2 door falcon wagon for sale near me over the summer, close but no cigar....lol

There is a 1964 Caliente on Bring a Trailer, looks to be a 20’example. The door jambs and trunk are definitely rough, the interior has issues.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Jim, love your new signature picture!

Why does it bother me so much that the horn button is upside down? Looks pretty solid, if the price is right it could be a cool car.

Looking good, keep those pictures coming. Love to see progress.
