    I just bought my 1974 comet as my first car (Sweet). I'm 15 and am proud to own it. Sure its not a navo,camaro,chevelle like my other friends but its a real beauty you have to see in in person to appreciate it. Its in mint conditon! Looks as if i just bought it out of the dealership in 1974. Its a real head turner and alot of people love it and stop just to look at it.

    sweet ride

    Looks like you have found yourself a nice Comet.Take care of it like the former owners and it will give you many yrs .I bought my Comet gt last year from the original owners and I still love it like it was brand new.Put a set of magnum 500s on it & they will really set it off. Good Luck with your Comet later "my comet gt"

    thats absolutely beautiful. YOu really scored. Car is a complete flashback to the early 70;s

    almost would make me think twice before modifying it too much

    how many original miles are on it---is it original, or has it been restored?

    Yea everything is original,even the motor and it only had 4700 miles on it. Im not sure if im going to modify it in any way because of its originality.
