    Welcome and good luck with your new project. You're gonna need it, but it's worth it if you have the time and patience.

    Welcome to the club. Personally, I think you were ripped off. I'll give you $300 for it just because I'm a compassionate individual. ;)

    'Looks like a great starting point. Have fun with it.

    Well Maverick75, I've just started my investigation into their wherabouts, hopefully I can find one of them in the right vin order to mine.

    As for a good starting point, this mav is miles ahead of the last car I resto'd (the mav has an interior and it actually runs!!!) Here's a before and after of my 1971 GT-37.

    What do you mean, it's the same nose piece, bumper and grills?

    It's the same one that was on the original car, but I've never seen one like that on a Comet GT before. Isn't the GT-37 in the pix a Comet GT?
