Re: My Comet Project

The Booster is a 7" Unit, and the Master cyclinder is for a 94-95 Mustang Cobra with the Granada distribution block, had to drill the brake peddle and use an adjustable push rod.

Re: My Comet Project

That is a LOT of progress! I'm glad you took the time to share it with us too! That damn motor just looks excellent like that too!

Re: My Comet Project

How much did the re-chromed bumpers run you? I'm doing a 67 falcon with a 72 comet engine :P

Re: My Comet Project

Got my seats mounted and wired today. They have a very nice feel to them. They are 6-way eletric adjustable seats out of a Mercury Cougar, so the kool thing about them is I am a little over 6'2" tall so the seats has a button to rise or lower the seats as needed.

Re: My Comet Project

Got my console mocked up, fabricated, painted, and installed today. Also, cut-in the dash in with Cherry red. Here are a few pictures of before and after. Next I will install the instrument cluster and finish off the dash.

Re: My Comet Project

hey, what did you do for your clutch set up? did you just use a stock mustang cable linkage or use a conversion kit? i'm not sure if i can use a stock cable set up in my fastback.
