This page holds a collection of the beginning photos that I took during the
pickup of the car and possibly a few surprises...... Do you know where your
Comet is Today? You will find thumbnails photos with a description of each.

Is this a find or WHAT?
  • Can you imagine finding a TREASURE LIKE THIS ONE?
  • Tucked away for about 15 years in this quoinsit and Tim to the rescue!
Now this is what you can call a CONVERTIBLE!
  • I know she is a little rough around the edges but I thought I would let you see where I started from in a little detail.
  • What has gotten into me?????
Doesnt she look fine in the DAYLIGHT?
  • The first daylight the car has seen in years..
  • I thought it was worth celebrating!!
Ready for the trip HOME!
  • Here is the Left side of the car, I have been afraid to show this at any other time but thought it was a good one.
  • Here she is all tied down and ready for the ride HOME!
My 64 Comet 404 Parts Car!
  • This is the parts car I picked up in October just south of Regina, SK
  • I believe this one will come in very handy during the restoration of the Convertible.
The outside of the 404's new home
  • This is Where I keep the parts car to keep the snow and ice off during the winter
  • I have a small parking area for a my half ton trailer and room for this structure which is just a poly tarp draped over a scaffold structure....the next photo tells the story.
Inside the parts cars HOME!
  • A little scrap lumber and a couple of scaffold stages and braces can make a pretty toasty structure to keep the snow and ice off.
  • I am using 4 scaffold sections and a 2X6 with OSB roof covered in the Green Tarp I purchased last fall for our Anniversary party at the lake.... a little large.. 30' X 40' but it does the trick.
Two more waiting for donations in Regina
  • Here are two more comets waiting for a ride!..
  • I took this photo of these two just to remember what they looked like, brother and sister. I have the trunk lid off of the gold one!
Does this look like a DONOR CAR??
  • A shot of the Granada that gave up its life for the drive train and disk brake swap
  • I know....I must be crazy eh...... not in too bad a shape was she?
