    has anyone ever seen one?
    ive been thinking about painting my comet but havent settled on a color yet. then the onther day i saw a cuda in lime green and i fell in love with that color with the black striping and black vynal top. it looked so good on the cuda but i dont know how it would look an a comet.
    anyone ever seen one? pictures?

    There is a Lime Green `71-`72 Comet GT with Black (Comet GT)stripes and Black interior in my town. MAYBE I can get a pic of it. It is located in the type of neigborhood that I probably would
    need to bring a Pistol along on the trip to ask about taking photos of it.:eek: :)

    The mav in blues post with the grabber hood is Ron Muirs from right here in Louisville, Ky. I believe it is all cut up now, he is putting a full tube chassis.

    The last car in bluegene's post.. anyone have an idea for that car's bumpers are set up? Specifically, the front one? That looks fantastic.

    I see it, there's definitely something there. My car without bumpers has a huge gap between the grill and front valance. That one has something custom. I wanna know what it is.

    Nothing there but fiberglass or bondo...Maybe something to fill the gap but we may never know cause it was for sale and some one posted it...a member here does not own it that i'm aware of.

    And it looks great. I want it.

    But that would be a fantastic bondo job.

    that is correct, i talked to him a few weeks ago...he has had a lot of stuff happen over the last couple years...things are settling down for him and he should be starting back on it soon.

    That's probably an aftermarket bumper, although I have no idea what body kit it's from. He must have modded it like crazy though to get it to fit like that, it looks incredible!!! :D
