so i went to the annual thanksgiving point swap meet here in Utah yesterday and really didn't find too much comet or maverick parts. found a couple sets of tail lights and some standard ford hubcaps that could have come on a maverick but i did find a nice comet hood emblem that has no pitting on it. so 5 bucks later that's the only part i purchased yesterday.
I was there with my yellow 73 Comet GT. Found a Mercury trunk lid emblem, perfect condition with all four pins entact.
Thanksgiving Point Yeah! Quite the name eh. Probably only someone who lives here would know what it is. They have a Car Show there every May in a Large park, with a big Auto part and vehicle type swap meet. This year I believe they had 700+ autos there. There were NO Comets or Mavericks there but mine got lots of lookers though. Do a search for Thanksgiving Point Utah and it will give a history of the name and what there is there. It's a family type resort with lots of thing there to do and see. Check it out
you know whats funny i have only ever gone into the car show once about 5 years ago. i end up walking through the swap meet a few times looking for treasures and am ready to go. i was thinking about heading in this year but my daughter was pooped out and did want to walk any more. wish i had gotten in to see your comet.
