    Just what is that color? It must be an original factory color I take it? John B.

    I agree it is a very sharp looking car. I personally don't care for
    the extreme rake, but that is just preference. It is a very straight
    looking car.
    As far as tire size, notice that he does not have the wheelwell
    moulding on the back. Maybe they interfered with the tires?

    I believe he has Canadian tags on it, but I am not sure. My pic
    is more clear than the post. I had to reduce the size.

    That Comet looks a lot like this one except for the vinyl top. It is a sharp color.

    Dont know who owns the car is but; its an Ontario car. Thinking it might be someone north of the city? Can tell by the phone number on the Pizza Pizza shop. Will ask around I have never seen that car in Toronto.

    Jean,
    That is the same color. I have seen that car before in another pic
    and in a magazine. I have it on my website.

    Promav, you get the detective of the day award. I didn't pay any
    attention to the signs. I was busy looking at the other cars in the
    lot on display.

    Love the car and the paint scheme, hate the rake.

    The rear tires are to big for my taste.
