    They're listing them for 66 to 71 so I would guess they fit the pre-71 larger Comets and not our years:huh:

    This is part of the problem with Ford recycling names. Creates confusion.

    Nope....not even close. Well...I suppose they could be "close"....but a flat sheet of metal is a lot closer. :D

    I just went with the early year mustang floors and they look very similar. Its an easy mod and if you want you can use the full length panels and get rid of the Maverick seat riser so its easier to mount seats in your car which is something i had considered. Since you are doing floors how are your torque boxes?:huh:
