    New member from Arkansas. I have a 64 Comet that I've been working on for the last few years and its almost finished, well closer anyways. I mainly just drag race it, but in time I will make it into a street car. Right now it has a 514" motor, C4 trans, 9" rear, MII type front suspension, and fiberglass front fenders and hood. I still need a total wiring overhaul and new interior. I look forward to getting to know you guys and learn a thing or two.

    I love the early Comet/Falcons - would love to see pictures of your front MII suspension - once you hit 10 posts you can post pictures :tiphat:
