New to the Comet world
New to the Comet world
just got this about three weeks ago, nice 289 (A code) auto. Drove it home from SoCal to where I live in Arizona, went great, needs a little work but nothing I cannot handle. Thank you for letting me join the group.

Welcome!
Pretty car, is it to be a well maintained driver? Any plan for updates?

I'd rather do it myself if it's done right or not,,,isn't that what hotrodding is all about
Re: New to the Comet world
Right now I am rebuilding the windows, adding the lower frame brace, monte carlo bar. lots of tuning and adjusting of the car to get it where I want it to be. It will be a respectful restomod with most mods hidden and keeping true to the cars original looks. really looking forward to putting wheels on it.

Welcome aboard! 
Nice looking ride. Have you been taking pics along the way of your work on it? Consider starting a build thread in 64-65 Comets. We'd love to follow your progress.
