    Hi, just found this sight. I have long been into 64 Comets . I just made the brake off for your site. I have been collecting 64 Comets and parts for about 20 years since I bought my first when I was 16
    I still have that car and is now Prostreeted and was in Hot Rod magazine in Dec. of 06 if anyone is interested. I have 4 other Comets and the latest project is a 64 404 Comet Wagon that will have a 60's drag race vibe to it. Radir wheels on front and steel wheels on back. I am thinking of putting a straight axle in the front and am tubbing out the rear for a little more tire clearance. Any suggestions on the front axle , do's and dont's, would be appreciated. Looking forward to meeting some local car guys on here and swaping ideas. Thanks for reading,Jim.

    Welcome from Dillsburg, PA (next door to Carlisle, PA)! I grew up in Hatboro off of County Line Rd. Good to see some folks from home. Do they still have that big car show in the center of town? I'd love to drive over one year and check it out again.

    Welcome from Lewisburg. I'll have to dig out that HR and look at your car. Maybe post some pics for the crowd?
