I guess I should start a build on here.

Yes, the great thing about builds on here is they are here forever. I still get people asking me about my old build thread.

Great story, love the truck

63 hardtop 2 door looks interesting.

Seems most of us on here have hotrodded our Comets, but there may be a few original one here. Hopefully someone on here needs it and you two can make a deal. Welcome, I also am a member on the concours mustang site and a long time saac member.

Welcome, glad you found us.

Merry Christmas. Found this on the internet.

Thanks!

Good article- https://www.hemmings.com/stories/2018/1 ... -cougar-ii

I have seen pictures over the years, but never that much info on it. Thanks for sharing.

I have been running a cleveland for 30 years in my 65. The tunnel is probably too small for a C6, I am using a top loader and it is tight. Does your car have slave arm power steering? If it is manual steering should work fine. I did not use the same headers as you but used some now out of production...

Sadly, probably only good as a museum piece now.

Looks like it's current status, Joe. Would be cool if someone bought it to display @ nostalgia events around the country.
