My 72 Comet Build.....

The charge tube is almost done now..... Pretty much just need to get it all cleaned up and ready to go.....





I got the wiring in the trunk all wrapped up today..... I added a second relay to activate the boost-a-pump with the Holley HP..... Also got the feed and return fuel lines made and installed..... I am going to try and get the II Much Fabrication vent system mounted and get my hard lines for it run.....

 

Sure looks sweet siting in there, I bet that car will surprise some people. Keep it up and you will be on the road in no time

 

No pressure but the NPD show is January 6th. Lol...

 

Thanks..... Hopefully it will.....

I should be shot if it's not running before then, in fact I might shoot myself if it's not.....

 

Excellent workmanship Frank ! It's apparent your install is a result of " planning " of a multitude of items
and it show . Kudos !!

Got the vent canister mounted and lines made to and from it..... Also got the vent line with filter made and mounted under the car..... Aside from getting the male -6 an fitting welded to the line coming from the tank the trunk is done..... The last couple pic's show the trunk with the spare tire bracket mounted and one with the spare tire in place, the spare tire provides protection for the lines/wires on the tank.....

 

Thanks Chip.....

 

Got the fitting welded on the vent line from the tank this week and put it in this morning..... The trunk is done aside from checking for leaks once everything is wired up and working..... Next I remove the pass side inner quarter firewall panel so I could route the activation wire for the BAP..... Then I cleaned the panel up and reinstalled it..... I have the rear carpet layed out in the floor of the car, I will get this trimmed, fitted and glued down tomorrow.....

Panel removed.....





Panel cleaned up around rivet holes and then riveted back in the car.....





The carpet layed out in place.....

 

Fitted and glued the rear carpet in today..... Then put the rear quarter plastics and rear seat in.....

 

Hi Frank:
Neat Looking Cage ! Do you have he ' halo-top' for just above the drivers seat area ? I put a cage in my Comet and have the center bracings only . Your Comet is really coming along nicely..Won't be too long before you ' fire '
that engine looks like. Nice workmanship, I've been following your build like a lot of other folks out there .

Thanks..... No funny car cage if that's what you mean..... Here's pic of the front area.....

 

I do have door bars also but the are swing out and removable, they are not in the car right now....

 

Yep ! I noticed the tabs welded onto the verticals in one of your photos. You must be looking forward to
" firing " that puppy by now ?? When do you think you'll be able to do that ? Just curious.

Still quite a bit of stuff to do..... The biggie will be wiring under dash and hood.....
