    Heys Im new here so I thought I'd post an intro thread.
    I got a project 1976 Comet 6-banger in my backyard. Do to lack of motivation, money and weather I haven't been working much on it but I'm building a 302 H.O. for it.

    Slowly but surely she'll get done ^^

    (only picture for now)
    She's in relatively good condition considering shes been standing around for a while. Fixed the rear quarter and floor panels.
    My ideas for this one is to turn it into a Mad-max style industrial beater: Roll cage, no carpet, gauges, No BS interior, flat black, etc :D

    Thanks everybody! =)

    Alberta. Both the Comet and the parts car are BC barn finds though :p When I got it they both had almost no rust except for your typical minor rust spots. all that for around $500.

    The interior before the new floor pans and sand blasting.

    I'm probably not gonna reuse most of the chrome so if anybody needs some, send me a message I got 2 sets :)
