Rust repair

[Hillbilly Comet Man]

Hey Guys,Here is a link to my rust repair how to from repairing my 93 Ford Lightning.The principal is the same whether its a Comet or anything else. I wish I would have had a digital camera when I had to build my lower quarter from flat sheetmetal.My Lightning has been a priority over the Comet for the last 6 months but I finally have the Lightning ready to paint and I plan on doing it before the 4th of July.And then I can put my attention back on the Comet.Later,Heathhttp://www.nloc.net/vbforum/showthread.php?t=150869
By the way the Ram Air Hood was also built from scratch and is functional,Can't wait to get back on the Comet!!

Cool truck.Have you done any engine mods?That series is the best of the Lightenings,just a great overall package. What color are you painting it? Roy.

Not much,Bassani equal length headers,PI Stallion torque converter.Its got 165,000 miles on it so I probably won't do much till I build a new engine for it.I am going back Black basecoat/clearcoat.

Awesome looking truck, Nice Job!! I like the way you made the hood scoops look like an AF/X Comet!

[Hillbilly Comet Man]

Believe it or not you are the first one to notice the Comet style scoops.It also favors the 66-67 Comet Cyclone hoods.

Hillybilly, I have a '66 Comet with a Cyclone hood and the scoops on that hood are recessed, not raised as the earlier comets...cool scoops though....
