    Glad to find this group of people.!!
    Just bought my first Comet,1976 with a 302. Had been sitting in a field for ten years.Brought it home replaced the fuel pump and fired on the first try. Found out the motor had been replaced just before it was parked.
    Does any one know where I can get door hinge pins? That is the biggest problem right now.
    Getting the car ready to drag race and din't want the doors to fall off
    Looking forward to chatting with you. Ron

    Welcocme, Ron! Glad to another Georgia Boy on the forum. There aren't many of us on here.:rolleyes:

    Call Vickie at Melvin's Classic Ford Parts in Conyers, GA (770-761-6800). She'll get you the right hinge pins and bushings.

    Watch www.dixiemaverick.com for happenings going on with the Georgia crowd and with other southern states.
