What did you do to your Maverick or Comet today

Well, I guess I don't win any prizes. Nice collection of cars.
I had a late 65 t5/GT with 4spd a lot of years ago. The guy I bought it from ordered it brand new when he was in the Military in Germany.....it came from the US with a guarantee that it would be shipped back to states with no taxes owed....and also no taxes were owed when it came to him in Germany. The export brace was different than those put on factory cars here in the use, plus it had a stiffener added.
Thanks for sharing.

 

installed my...newly powdercoated door sill plates.

 

got pics???

 

Well I didn't have a switch for my Grabber lights so I hooked them up to work whenever the Grabber is running, I guess I now have running lights.

 

Mine is from yesterday. I dropped in a new set of points, got a vacuum line long enough to hook the vacuum advance back up, and installed a new driver side windshield wiper

 

Going out now to clean out around the car and see what I can accomplish

 

Drove it last night, no problems, drove it again today, ran the crap out of it! no problems.

 

Got another one, this one's more of what the Maverick is doing on it's own. Seeing its first rain in about 2 years, and it's quite the downpour

EDITic

 

I've been stripping paint...

 

Ive been working for the last week doing all I can to pound out a deal with a guy for a comet gt. this has got to be the hardest negotiation Ive ever had on a car. and for some reason Ive been one of those people that cant seem to say no throughout the deal.

I have a deal finally figured out and tomorrow I get to pick it up.
Ive seen pics and it looks pretty good but Im keeping my fingers crossed it atleast looks as good as the pics. if its better in person even better.
Ive got a 3.5 hour journey ahead of me so hopefully its worth it.
Ill post pics when I get it home

 

This was the first day I've had to work on mine lately. First order of business was get it out of the garage and turn it around. I put the battery in (I've had it out for tray replacement) and the battery was dead. Figured I'd snatch the battery out of the Comet. Got it in and it was dead. Gave up and mowed the yard one last time.

 

Well, I did clean out around the car but, other than that, accomplished nothing except took a few pictures

 

Cut, trimmed, fit, drilled spot weld holes in my new right front floor pan. Finished welding up the lower torque box spot welds. Started it and let it breath for awhile. I will drive this thing this year!!!

 

You are quickly running out of "this year" in Ohio

 

Yea, I know!
