    1974 Comet
    Hello,
    I am a new member to this forum. I recently pulled an Orange 4.1 250 1974 Mercury Comet out of storage and have started the rebuild. She runs, but doesn't idle, but at least she still kicks over. With a little TLC she will be back on the road in no time. An interesting note is that it is via vin number and exterior decals a Mercury comet, however the interior is all ford decals...is this a common occurrence?

    Welcome aboard.

    Ford Motor Company built the car, so it is pretty common to see FORD on various places throughout the car.
