    Excellent start. I always liked the Comet front better than the Maverick.

    This is the one that's a factory v8,PS,A/C,auto.It's now got an '86 GT shortblock w/'88 heads('86's have flattop pistons,but "truck" heads)b303 roller,weiand 8011 intake/holley 600,rebuilt c4 w/shift kit,polygraphite front rebuild and everything else is pretty much worn out and old.And per the wife's instruction,this car is to be sold under NO circumstance,so I got time to mess with it.

    You have no clue how much I would like to have that car!

    I like my brothers Maverick alot (and lord knows I've put enough blood and sweat into it at this point), but I'm defintately a Comet guy. Like I said on my first post on this site, I will either get a Comet, or get a Maverick and turn it into a Comet.
