    Great looking Comet! Love those slotted wheels, kinda takes me back to my younger days. People do confuse these cars with camaros. Once when at a show mine was parked next to one and a guy asked me why I had put a ford emblem on my camaro. He wasn't the only one that was confused about it.

    That's a funny one that happened to you Dangerous Dave! :rofl: Yes Jamie, it's usually the younger ones who don't know the difference and it's a shame. Why don't they teach that in school! It is history, isn't it? "Ok class there will be a test on classic cars...write down the make/model of what is shown in each pic...." I am teaching my 9 year old daughter about all kinds of things from the past so she will know what's what.
