    Where ever you can find the best deal, they all come from the same manufacture. I found mine on ebay and paid about $400.00 with shipping for both.

    Thanks for your help, I just brought it home today. Its a 2 door Comet with 302 auto and front disks. I have the original bill of sale from when it was bought new. "Edna" bought it new in 74 for 3500$. interrior is in exellent shape, but the body needs some work and it blew a rear brake line coming off the Dolly. Gotta love projects. I have built 10 mustangs over the years and just got really bored with them so I decided to try a different avenue...:thumbs2:

    I have been finding out that quality parts are very hard to find. Everybody wants to sell you there junk, and keep the good stuff in the rafters in there garage for future use... So.. its fustrating when u cant find what u r looking for.. My grabber is still a work in progress. I am still gathering parts..

    Edna "as im calling her" is 98% complete. I only need a comet grill. The quarters are workable but i want to give to give her the best I can. I think that is why the guy I bought it from sold it becouse the parts are so hard to find. It reminds me of the 80s before the internet where everythhing was word of mouth and you had to find old junk yards to get the things you needed or just built them yourself.
