Howdy Doody!
I bought a one owner 202 like yours' 30 years ago. Memory fails me a bit but the mileage was around 70-80K.
It was classic white w/ red interior. Interior was a time capsule. Long story short, sold it to a friend that now owns two others like it.

Re: poboyjos ride
Dude, you have the patience of Job to tackle all of those welds.
Great job!!
Like Lou, I was wondering how you are going to handle temp controls, esp. the defroster?
I was thinking about the NASCAR cowl induction but remembered you had the air intake tackled already

Re: Building my 65 Comet
He likes the tunnel ram look as he found the Hot Wheels version of the Comet Gasser. Found this in a bin @ the pharmacy this morning. It was the first one I picked up @ $1.19. Crazy thing, there was a 'Mike's Transmissions' shop near me back in the 80s. The owner had a trailered '64 Cyclone drag ca...

Re: 1965 Comet Caliente (little red)
The car started ok. High idle seemed ok to warm it up. After every stop and attempt to move out at slight to medium throttle it would stumble and stalled several times in the middle of intersections! Also at 45 MPH, there is noticeable miss in the engine! Just not smooth! Very NOT good. On a good n...

Re: 1965 Comet Caliente (little red)
Chris, Have someone tap the gas pedal in the car while you check travel of the old bellcrank (mounted on the back of the intake manifold). I'm still running one on my engine and had to do some bending and tweaking to tighten it up. It's 60 years old and makes metal/metal contact. Just a free idea :i...

Fun Auction
This should be fun to watch- https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1963-mercury-comet-10/ Talking to an old HS friend that's currently restoring a '63 single-axle Airstream. He drove his older brother's 1st gen Comet back in HS. This auction reminded me of him. Need to send him this link for a big grin ...
