Re: Hot Rod Reunion

Got back from the Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green, Ky. today. I was able to talk with several Comet owners about coming next year to the 2016 Gathering, June 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Many Comet owners said they would be at the 2016 event and some said it was just to far to travel/trailer their cars. Saw ...

Re: Gathering

Baldy, I look forward to seeing the 66. You might be the only owner in a 66 but I assure you the rest of the guys can talk or tell stories about the Spirit of Comets in general.
