Yeah, I've been told that by a couple of reliable sources, one of which Bill told him to his face at a car show. I don't know though, after...
Hey Jim! I don't know if you remember but we chatted back in 2010 about the Sachs & Sons Comets. I can't believe its been that long at this...
Well, a cousin of mine posted this picture just the other day. This is the 4th known picture of that comet. I'm still looking for this long lost...
Yes, very nice recreation of the famous blown Chrisman Comet! Now, I'm still looking for the "other" 64 AFX Comet, the one Shrewsberry inherited....
Long time no post! I ended up acquiring another picture of this Comet over the weekend. Some gentleman in WV took this picture when he was a kid...
Well, whether Bill got that car back, never got rid of it, what have you... I'm keeping all theories open! :) I just want to rehash some info...
He kept it?? Gahh, I'm so confused now! Maybe there was a 3rd one they actually gave to him after he drove Chrismans?
Cool! Will do.
Set 'em straight Roy! I'm still looking for that 2nd Comet. I wish the hillbilly that has it in his barn would post up. :)
Thanks for the looking out ClearSpot. Thats actually my uncle Bennie, he owned it. I guess he's finally made it to the interwebs and is looking...
Long time no see! I hope everyone has been well. I'm still on the lookout for this Comet!
Heck yeah!
Ken, did you ever see my post I made after I made contact with Jim Barillaro Jr? Well he had spoken to his dad to get some details and here is...
Hey guys! My sister ran across another pic of this Comet.... I still haven't had any luck tracking this thing down. It was named Benny B-Gone...
Awesome pics!

Cool story! I'm going to give dad a ring tomorrow and ask about the Pepper Shaker, he remembers everything I'm sure he has a few good stories....
Man, that would be wild if Bill ended up with this Comet again...
Oh to be a quarter panel.... :)
RaceArt posted this same picture back in 2008, crazy... I'm trying to get ahold of him to see how he ended up with it. [IMG]
Very Nice Ken! Roy had forgotten all about me.... :( :) I'm still looking for this Comet!
Welcome from Lexington/Ashland! :)
Hey Dave, That is the same comet, ol Jimmy Lawson. A few weeks ago I was fortunate enough to get ahold of Roger Gustin and he gave me a rundown...
Lexington KY here, originally from Ashland. Quick question for you guys in the eastern Ky region - is there anybody on here that recognizes this...
I know all about this car! I sent you a PM RaceArtist. Also I wrote about this car another thread on this website.....
Hey Guys! I've been on a break you could say but I've uncovered some good stuff. Referencing back to page 87 about there being 2 1964 A/FX...
Just something else I found - makes you think... The one story of Dad calling Jack about some engine specs and Jack telling my dad that his young...
Love the responses and all the great information. So it may be a lost Sach's and Sons? Keep it up guys - we have to find out where this car came...
Roy, could you elaborate for me on your story to Ken about Bill Shrewsberry having a car then Mercury gave it to Chrisman? sorry, as my avatar...
I agree with tedisnoke - thank you so much for your "filling of the gaps", seriously. This is something near and dear to my heart and I cant...
