    You're opposite of me! I can't wait until mine doesn't have to be a daily driver. Then I can get it running good. Still haven't gotten it tuned good. Almost ready to give up and take it to a shop. It's always hit and miss when it runs good or not. Also dont think my choke kicks off all the way and it idles high, turns out that's what was causing my brakes to tweak on me again. oh well. it'll get work soon, plan to get a new ride in july.:thumbs2:

    I have a 75 comet with a 302. It is a work in progress
    I replaced ball bearing's...sort of. I had to stop due to the 105+ temps. At least I got the damn things off, it's ready to go back together tomorrow.

    Got in and drove it 150 or so miles to the little town of Cave Spring, GA. I like to go there for lunch sometimes, when I want to take the car out for a spin. Flawless morning, getting ready for the Gathering!
