Doug,


Here are some pictures of my current project, 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente Hardtop.  I was talking with you last summer when I thought it was a Cyclone, that's what I was told and didn't know any better.  I had it for sale in your classified section, and I think I still do.  Keep it in there until I decide to paint it or sell it (its been in the body shop since last July).


My favorite thing about it is the 1991 Mustang GT 5.0 HO EFI conversion.  Its also full of Ford Motorsports goodies and pulled 303 hp on a chassis dyno at 3600 ft elevation, with 346 ft lbs of torque may I add.  As you can see it is pretty clean and done right, and very quick with plenty low end torque.  I am a high school automotive technology instructor and this was one of our projects last year.  Currently we are stuffing a 350 in an Astro van and a 96 Trans Am LTI 350 into a 89 Jeep Wrangler (its kind of a pain, not as easy as the 5.0).  Anyway I thought you might like to see these pictures since I promised them and maybe if the car is good enough to put it in your "projects" section of your web page. Let me know what you think.  Also if anyone needs some advise how to do this conversion, send them my way, I can help, its an easy installation.


I plan to have the car completed this spring if I decide to keep it.  Including a black paint job with 60's style flames, 4 wheel disc brakes, and an upgraded AOD trans, I'll keep you posted and send new photo updates.


Thank you,
