I hope to get working on my wagon soon Roy. Right now I am trying to make Comet bunk beds in my garage . I will get pictures when I finish this project.
If anyone out there has a wagon and wants info on how I did the tank let me know. I found out how hard it was to find a tank when I got this car.

Beauty car Jim, do you have any pics of the backseat and rollbar in the back?

There is no back seat except the child seat that is strapped between the roll cage bars . The rear bars go through the back just below the package tray .

I'm planning on leaving the backseat in my 65 and was looking for pics.

Roger;have your rear bars bent to follow the roof and back window line and take them through the package tray.Two of my friends have done that,it looks great and you keep your back seat. ROY.

I saw your car in a car craft, and I wanted to know what you did with the master cylinder? I am in the process of switching from power to manual brakes thanks.

I installed a Tilton pedal assembly that is mounted under the dash with remote resivors in the dash grill area. Wilwood also makes a setup. Here is a link to the setup we did on a 65 Comet .
