COMET CENTRAL

Thanks for the reply guys, it was a drum brake system to start with a single MC. It will be a few days before I can get the car on the lift, but will check this out. The new dual MC was for a 67' Mustang, will check pushrod location and verify MC diameter. Here is a picture showing the different pu...

Lou, You are right about the original '65 Comet alternator. Not sure which store I got 60 amps from, but these stores don't seem to mind selling you a "replacement" alternator that would cook your wiring if you loaded it down. 60 amps? pfffh! Summit has a 140 amp "replacement" listed for a 1965 Com...

Beautiful work Lou 👍 There are quite a few craftsmen here working their Comets, you, Jim and Jim, Fred, Joe, Johno, and so many others, really helps backyard mechanics like myself. Thanks for what you do. Thanks Caveman! I agree with ya, a lot of good people here, and a few that are no longer posti...

Lou beautiful craftsmanship!! Im sure if I was to come by your shop and walk around your car not much would be said,, probably "FU" and my mouth would hang open,,, Thanks Fred! I think if you came to my shop we would have a lot to talk about.. If I was in his shop I would beg him to work his magic ...

Thanks Joe.

My 65 has a hard pedal and pulls hard to the left. I haven't had a chance to tear into it yet. It is an original drum brake car, I did install a 67' manual MC. It also has new rubber lines installed. Any ideas or suggestions before I start removing things? Thanks for your help... Probably two diffe...

Thanks guys! John it came with the seams already in it and rough cut. Had to form and trim it. https://www.ecklers.com/falcon-vinyl-top-2-door-hardtop-black-or-white-comet-1963-1965-90-86016-1.html Did you try Joann fabrics for something for the rear package tray? Probably where I am going to go for...

Finished installing my vinyl roof. Really wasn't that bad. Not perfect but I am very happy with it, extremely happy it is done. https://i.postimg.cc/mZSRQQ4Z/1934-DC40-63-CC-4-A96-9-BFB-248-F40-E5752-A.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/3JSTqYWP/CE76029-C-DFAD-4-E0-D-B7-A3-4-B7-CE1-A313-C7.jpg https://i.posti...

Lou

Looks Great Doug!

Can't wait to see it in color. What did you use for the firewall behind the rear seat?

And Happy Birthday!

Very nice, when you were talking about cutting off and switching/ welding the shock mounts I thought you were going to cut at the base and weld to the shock body. Like they were originally welded, leaving half the eyelet/ring to weld the new mount to is brilliant!!! Wow!

Lou

Congrates to you and your wife Jim! That's awesome!!!

I agree with Boss and Tom, Buy anyhow, I stopped by my shop and the wires you are asking about are 10 gauge. They are black/ yellow stripe and black with red stripe. They are the thickest wires, other than batt cables. But I don't think my alt was 60 amp. The factory shop manual says it is either 38...

Thanks Jim,

Yea been getting my money out of those clips!
