    Glad you are back in the game. From all that I'd read, it was a pretty horrific crash; how do I view these photographs other than looking at black circles with white dashes?

    Looks real solid as I am sure it is. I dont mind the Comet front with the grill blacked out.

    The Comet looks like a real straight little car and I agree about the Maverick front and have always like the Comet tail lights.
    Wish you were closer and I'd come over, pull up a chair and give you some moral support.......................plus I'd really like to see you transform this Comick.

    Neat! Between your wrecked car and Mo's change overs, you should have plenty of parts to make a nice car!

    i just dont like the comet front end. i will be painting the car satin black again so being one color is no problem. this grill comet grill is all broken up anyways, the passenger fender is crunched and the bumper is bent. the hood is in really good shape and will be up for sale.
