Field Find: '76 Comet

Found this in a field a few days ago. Has a 250 i6 in it. It currently doesn't run, but is in pretty sound shape. I should have took a some better pics of it, but this Comet has these....extra folding windows on it. I have never seen these before. Do they come out with the car original, or did someone just put them on there? You can kind of see them in the pics. Here they are:











I have yet to get it home. Been raining a lot here lately and am waiting on it to dry up so I can get it on a rollback. More pics to come.

 

Great job!

A lot of potential there; where did you locate these?

 

Thanks! Found them in Tennessee.

 

The little side windows are an aftermarket add-on. Never seen anybody put them on a Maverick or Comet before. Seen them mostly on 50's and 60's era cars.

 

Ahh, okay! Thanks for the help. I was born in '87, so they're new to me. LOL.

 

Then the bodies should be well-preserved. That's nice.

 

Indeed they are. The only bad part about the find was the weather, haha. Ready to get them loaded up.

 

Kids...got 30 years on ya.

 

Hey, at least all of us young people aren't terrible. This is what I like to do in my free time. I could be doing something worse. Like..... being Justin Bieber's roadie. LOL!

 

cool finds! i was born in '86, not all of our generation is bad...at least were not spendin our money on drugs or even worse chevys

 

Yep...y'all stick with the cars! We gotta keep these things going for years to come. I've already had one of mine for 38 years!

 

This cracked me UP! That was great. 100% true though.

 

I'd take these cars any day over all these newer ones coming out.

 

Great finds. they both look nice. Find me some small bumpers. lol

 

Where are you from in Tennessee. Where did you find the cars in Tennessee.
