    The 70's (not sure what other years) have the turn signal lights below the bumper tucked into the valance. Kinda like an early mustang. I think it makes for a very clean look. The grills are interchangeable though...change the wiring around and you can have it either way or both (use the grill lights for fog lights tied into the low beams).

    without Comet now just keeping in touch
    Nice Find Jim

    Hey Jim, haven't talk to you for ahile I'm the guy who bought a GAs tank form you awhile ago, I am getting close to putting a new flex plate in my Comet,
    You had offered one time to help me patch my floors, that offer still stand..
    Once I get it drivable again, Halting any further rust issues will be my first priority, the floors aren't real bad... yet, I want to keep it that way.

    I have some that I am going to install, just as soon as I find the spring mount bushings. Seems no one can get any :huh: :hmmm: Soon as I get them on I'll give a report. Do you have any recent pics of your car?? I'd like to see it!! Preston

    Halebopp - Sure bring your car over anytime. The only problem is that I have moved to Montana! Sorry... It sounds like you are making progress on the car though. Good luck and if you are ever in Montana look me up....

    Preston - Great, let me know how they work. I dont have any recent pictures of the car but it is getting close to finished. I just finished installing the twisted wedge heads last night, hope to have it running by the weekend. I will get some pics then.

    Jim
