    Welcome!

    Always good to see another Comet Guy ... especially a 72.

    I actually drove my car for about 10 miles while sitting on a milk crate ... had the new bucket seats stacked up on the passenger side. I lived in an apartment at the time and was taking the car to my buddy's house where I could wrench on it and get the seats installed. :thumbs2:

    Look forward to seeing you at the meet, make sure to hit up the other thread and say Hi to the rest of the guys.:thumbs2:


    Front disk I would just hit up the junk yard and use your discount at work for the replacement parts you need, same with bucket seats at the junkyard or if your interested I have a set of red foxbody seats in good shape I would let go real cheap (seat covers for the red or most mustang websites sell new upholstery)


    Now where is the pictures LOL:rofl:

    Hey What Autozone do you work at? I used to work at q few different ones 5 years ago and still know quite a few different managers. Now I work for CSK/O'reilly. Worked in the stores for 3 years but am in the office now.

    The last store I managed was the 35th ave and southern Checker store. Wasn't very close for me either. The office isnt much closer but it sure beats working weekends.

    Yeah I go over there some times, maybe about once every 4 months or so. Just doesn't seen like the "old" pavillions anymore to me for some reason.
