    That looks fantastic.

    I wish mine looked that good when I started
    restoring it, I wouldn't have restored it!

    That is beautiful. Taht is a good price if it is all true. Only thing is I am not sure I would rely on a 32 year old spare tire.

    Very nice. I would venture to say its worth around $4500. I have 2 virtually rust free cars and it will still take more than that to get them in the kinda shape that this Comet is in. That is providing the pictures are a true representation of its condition. Then again, I always think these cars are worth more than most.

    From the ad:

    "It would be impossible to restore a car like this for what you can buy this one for. "


    That's the understatement of the year! Very clean.


    18,364 miles? way :cool:

    Looks like the '72's bright lime (4E).

    Grabber Lime (I) was the color in '71, though.

    That's one fine looking car!

    Hey, I bought mine two years ago with 30k actual for $3000 on ebay. Not quite as clean, but pretty close. You could eat out of the trunk.

    I think i saw a speck of dirt on there somewhere! Wish i had started with something that nice...but also makes me love my car that much more for all the work that's gone into it.
