    I bought this comet several months ago...

    i paid $450 for it...i've since then taken the 302 and v8 swap parts and put them in my car. i sold everything usuable, Kick panels, seat surrounds, dash pad, rearend, door panels, and exhaust manifolds... not in the picture are the set of 66 mustang spinner hubcaps that somebody is coming tomorrow to buy for $110!

    i think its so funny how this works out...i now have a 302 and the tranny that was attached to it, all the parts that were necessary for a v8 swap and i've actually come out ahead by about $250. Those comets make great parts cars lol! :rofl2:

    Yeah, I know Comets are just a little more harder to come by.
