    I own a 1971 Comet that my grandfather purchased new in San Jose, CA. He ordered it with the 302 auto, but it didn't have any GT stripes, scoops, etc. I retrieved it from his backyard in 1985 where it had been sitting for a few years. I cleaned it up and drove it to High School and College for about 3 years then it was parked again. I've dug it out a few times over the years, but now I have a teenage son who has the bug so hopefully in the near future we'll be taking the wrenches to her. Looking forward to many hours of reading on this forum.

    Very cool history on the car, I hope to see it back on the road and ready for another generation of your family :)

    I wish I had some of the cars my grandpa bought :(
