    Nice cars. There are a lot of things that you can do to that car to improve the performance and handling that won't take away from the original appearance. Biuld the 347 and paint it and put the accesories back on it. Enjoy. :dance::drive:

    A 351w based stroker would right at home and be easy to hide with the stock acessories and decals

    A friend of mine has one for sale. I tried to talk my cousin into it but he's already paid the deposit on a 347 from Pro Formance. I don't know much about them but he's pretty confident about it.

    They look like the same "Foresight Prowler" wheels that were on Bear Cats. I suppose they would be very hard to find. Thanks for the pictures. Real nice Comet you've got.

    I belive Bearcats and Stabbers were pretty much the same. Pugmire decided to call theirs Stabbers I guess. The wheels are the same as far as I can tell. Foresight Prowlers is what I've been told by numerous people also.
