    Very cool find. Excellent interior (just what I want mine to look like when I'm done :thumbs2:).

    Hope the Febreeze works. From your earlier post, I figured that carpet replacement was in order, but it still looks good yet.

    My second car was a 71 Torino (pics in my gallery). I'm doubly jealous. Nice score!

    Is that Febreeze working on the discount odor?

    Interior looks very good.
    Congrats again!!

    I keep coming back to look at it :).
    With the savings, carpet is cheap. (y)

    That is a nice Torino. Sorry to hear it went down hill after you owned it. The febreeze helps with the smell, but the carpet and headliner need to come out. There is also Irish spring soap under the back seat. That is the best mouse repellant ever. I had a pick-up and my 67 fullsize in an old grainery for around 2 years. The 67 had the soap, the pick-up didn't. The pick-up was absolutly infested, the 67 not a 1.

    Sorry for the confusion. The Comet didn't have the irish spring soap. I put it in after. Was just trying to say that mice don't like the smell. Also how good it works to keep them out of cars in long sorage.
