    why?.. you lookin' to change patches look these days? Sorry, but it will actually get painted to match the rest of the cars theme.. so no, it's not for sale. I might know where to find a yellow fender for you though. :huh:

    Got my seats back from being professionally cleaned and deodorized and got the rear ones installed. I was very impressed with how clean and "mouse-hotel-free" they smell now.

    Ordered my Stainless Steel flex line set from Summit racing last night. 2 or 3 weeks and I'll strip my brake system and install the front discs.

    I got the "new" differential in and took the Comet for a test drive. No more rear end noise!

    Drove mine to another car show with my friends and their 'orphan' AMC cars. My car had a lot of people checking it out. My friend's AMX garnered a well deserved trophy. DSCF0259.JPG DSCF0260.JPG
