    Spoke to my local Earl's for a price quote for new fuel lines, tranny lines and required brake lines and hoses for my disc brake swap for the Comet! Good thing my tax refund is coming soon!

    Found a pair of halogen headlamps in the junkyard while searching for my 3g alternator. Installed them today. Noticable difference over the stock bulbs. Going to do the headlight relay mod eventually.
