Just wanted to say hello to anyone who may be on right now. I am a new 1975 Comet (2 door) owner and I am sure I will have a ton of questions that hopefully I can get most answers from this forum. My comet is a running restoration project. Currently has a in line 6 cylinder with auto tranny that I am planning to replace with a V-8 over the next year. I am planning to keep the car as original as possible aside from the drive train. One thing I am puzzeled about is I was working on the electrical system today trying to find reverse light wire and I looked everywhere I could thing of and I couldn't finD a fuse box. Is it me or did Mercury not put on in this vehicle?
hello everyone just thought i'd do the same as erick seeing as we both are noobs to these forums. my names jake but you can call me whatever you feel like. i may be some young kid (16) but dammit i love fords till i die all my friends roll around in their little hondas but thats just not me i bought my maverick for my first car. its the 73 stock 302 with a c4 in it unfortunetly. it still has factory paint! 2 years from now im hoping to get this car to low 12's maybe swap it to a 351 soon seeing as i have one just needs new piston rings and is ready to go. well hope i filled anyone interested in my/my car out thanks and hope to be learning everything i can about this great car.
Welcome Welcome Wesley and Erick from Northeastern Illinois. Ur in the right place for info./ knowledge there's plenty of it on this forum. I've been here only 11 mos. and it's help me tremendously, saved me a lot of money, mistakes, time and frustration to name a few. Erick >> Fuse box is in the upper left side under the dash. U have to really get ur head under there to see it. U can't be timid abt contorting ur body to find it. Some here have modified and relocated their boxes. I plan on a mod sometime in the future. Gud Luck w/ ur cars.
Welcome to the board guys. If you go with a 347 stroker it'll fit a lot better and have more power than you need to get in the 12's. I run high 11's-low 12's with my 308 Mav.
