Leny,
Saw you other posts on the FE forum. I am currently (tonight) working on a narrowed rear for my '64 Pro Street Comet. I have a 24" 4 link frame. My 4 link brackets are 22" centers. At 20" center is your frame 22"? Looking forward to pics of your frame. This is what I started tonight. Mine is 33" wide. Using 15x15 wheels w/4" offset, 31x18.5x15 tires.

Hay Doug My Comet is the same color as your car today we sprayed black primer on it, I thought the body was pretty straight before, black shows all the dings, but it is coming along nicely I got my under dash master cylinder so now I can work under the dash, next is to fit the steering column to the rack I turned the worm gear off the end of the shaft, when I get it fit for length I will mill a fiat on it to make a D shape for the U joint, but it is looking great.

Doug, what is the canister with the Hurst decal and where'd you get that Cyclone decal?
Leny, is the Comet going FE power? I can't remember.

Stacey, Sorry for the delay. Excessive working and vacation kept me away from the forum the past few weeks.
The Cyclone decal I think is from a set of headers I bought years ago? I stuck it there years ago and though it's there, I really never see it if you know what I mean?
the "canister" is a Ford 9" holder for bench work.
