    hello, I was checking these forums out a while ago during the process of looking for a Comet and i finally came across one so i went and picked it up and signed up here and here she is. as of today it no longer has any seats/carpeting as i will be grinding it all down and re-doing the inside right now before i get to the body work and then pull the engine which runs beautifully after not running for years....blew my mind what a fresh battery and a little gas can do.
