    Remember the guy,Archiezappa, who wanted to turn his Comet 4 door into a 4x4? Well, he took me up on my offer to trade for my T bird and the Comet now resides in my backyard! Really great guy. Thanks, Bryan! Heres a few pics for your enjoyment!

    I don't know if it runs or not, no tranny. Will turn by hand, so it's not froze up.Was last tagged in 2000, parked when flex plate went bad. I traded for mainly the small bumpers and valances. Will trade the front bumper for a small Maverick bumper in driver condition. Funny thing about the car, the right quarter is rust free, the left is rusted off about 2 inches up. I might find a c4 later and swap the motor over into my red 74 2 door Comet . How about a 200 I6 bracket drag car?:dance:

    Too bad, I think a 4x4 would have been neat. Plus another car would have been saved. But......good deal for you.

    Yea, I tried to donate my ex's brain but she was still using it, although in a limited capacity.
