    :clap: Well I brought my 72 Comet GT home today. I bought it about 1 1/2 years ago from a friend. :) Funny thing happened on the way home I stopped by the tire store to buy some new tires, because the ones on the car are old and had been flat when I picked the car up today, and a nother customer in the store overheard me talking and when the salesman went to go check his stock, he proceded to tell me about his friend who has a 69 Grabber show car turns out he wanted to change tires and wheels. Quick stop at this guys house and I now have a set of 15" directional wheels with 2 new front tires and 2 rear tires that are in good condition to replace my slotted 14" rims and rotted tires.Small world! Nice Grabber by the way(y)
    Looking for information on brake conversions,suspension tips,good parts sources.
