    I finally got around to getting the starter and solenoid I need. Not long now 'till I'm back on the road. Now that the weather's clearing up I'm getting started on the body work, too.

    Quarter panel repair, general rust stuff and removing all evidence of my LDO "door guard" trim. Got some work ahead of me, but I'm excited to finally get to work on it "for real". I bought it right before the snow hit.

    It's Okay... I just purchased a 1972 Comet over the weekend. Its all orginal.. Beautiful Car. Baby Blue with White Top. Husband is happy now that the hot pink car is an idea of the past. I wouldnt dream of messing with an all orginal car. Especially since the paint is near perfect.


    Oh and btw eddie 1975 i changed my PROFILE so it would show the correct car now. :thumbs2:
