CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
This is a very solid old Comet, there is some rust in the lower rear quarters and the right front lower fender, the rest is minor surface rust. The floors, rockers, trunk, front torque boxes are in extremely good condition. I have over $2500 just in parts alone.$600 in the cylinder head. This is a very worthwhile project. I realize it's not a 1965 Mustang or another very highly sought after classic, but they are also a lot more rare! Having said that, I am having health issues and am unable to finish this project. I would really love to see someone finish this car.The body is super straight! The only filler I found on the whole car is in the passenger rear door, and it is very minimal. I found this car about 30 miles from our house under a lean type roof on the side of a barn, it had been parked there, out of the weather since 1979! The original owners manual was in a tin box in the glove compartment. I was amazed at the fact that there were no mice issues in the car and there is no chewed up wiring! There was several big trays of Decon mouse and rat pellets in the car when we started cleaning it, so I believe that answers that. It has 4 brand new tires with (0) miles. I removed the 144 c.i. engine and replaced it with a 1969 Mustang 200 c.i 6 cyl. The cylinder head was machined out to except 1.75" intake valves, that upgrade was a additional cost to rebuild the head, but I'm told it's well worth doing. The glass in this car is unbelievable, it's all the original FoMoCo glass with no clouding, scratches, wiper marks or anything. I am the second owner. I have so much money in this project. I realize I will never recoup all my money and I am pricing it accordingly. I am 99% certain I have every piece for this car, it's all tagged and bagged and in totes, and was all placed in a climate controlled storage. I have a bunch more pics of the car and all the new and original parts that go with the car. There are several other boxes of new parts I forgot to get out of the storage (Not shown) Please feel free to ask me any questions, I will answer them promptly and honestly. If you have no or poor bidding history I won't accept your bid. Thanks for checking out my ad.
