    I've been lurking here for quite a while. I owned a 72 that I cloned quite a few years ago but always wanted a "real" GT. I recently bought a 73 to restore, 302 w/ a 3 speed. It needs some rust/body repair and quite a bit of interior work. I'll be looking for parts and suggestions real soon. Thanks to all that post, I've really enjoyed reading them.

    Welcome to the board.
    I would like to add your GT to the Comet GT Registry.
    E-mail me to let me know how to contact you.
    I also have a set of the stripes-reproduction that I
    can save you some money on. I can also help you
    with bright shiny decals for your center caps-the same
    Mercury crest logo.

    I bought a set of them decals, there nice. Can't wait to have some wheel centers to put them on :(.
    Seth, did I get mine added to the registery? I don't remember...
    By the way, what is the registery good for exactly? Is this just for you or is there any benefit for others to have a copy of said? Just curious...:Handshake

    Not sure if its the lighting or not ... but it looks more like Medium Yellow Gold than the Bright Yellow in the picture above.
