Concours of America

Post by A/FX »

I’m not sure how many of you follow the Concours d’Elegance events but I thought this might interest you. Last weekend was the Concours of America in Michigan, one of the awards was for “Best sounding car” it went to a 1965 Comet Cyclone. I believe this is a clone, as the real car got very cut during the race season back in ‘65.

Thank you for the post, Jim!

That is a replica of the car I dreamed of for many years. Wanted to build a replica myself from my '65 Cyclone but it wasn't meant to be. Bought every magazine and book that covered Don's first '65 A/FX car I could find. Had all the specs but lost it all in the last move 20 years ago from water damage. Actually lost my Cyclone from water damage as well, come to think of it.
