Ever clean your garage? May 02, 2010, 11:15:45 PM Well it was raining all day so I figured I'd dig in to the depths of my junk pile in the garage and try to get organized a little.I found a set of illuminated door locks with keys, NOS chrome door edge protectors, NOS headlight door emblems, and a pair of side light lenses for my box bird. I dont even remember buying this stuff, it was like freakin christmas! Anyone else experience this phenomenon when cleanin up the shop?Scott Quote Selected

Ever clean your garage? Reply #8 – May 06, 2010, 08:48:27 PM I went through my stash of parts about two months ago. I found all kinds of stuff that I forgot about, such as: A non-cruise TC steering wheel, three sets of Marchal lamps, floor shifter (auto and man) surrounds, leather shift and boot (mint), power lock delete covers, XR-7 fender badges, NOS XR-7 c-pillar emblems, XR-7 header panel emblems, center caps, horn buttons, computers, and even an unbroken hood release cable. I have no idea where most of that stuff came from. Quote Selected

I'm hoping to finish it and get it running this summer and finally drive this thing for the first time after owning it for about 2 1/2 years already. Quote Selected

Ever clean your garage? Reply #13 – May 15, 2010, 02:34:02 PM a Crummit, those are so ugly they are cool... Wife had a S-22 as her first car...With the 144 I6 & two speed Ford-O-Matic(er Merc-O-Matic) transmission, they have to rank as the slowest cars ever built... Possibly the 144 wasn't avail in the Comet??? It was in the Falcons though and slow is a merciful description... Quote Selected
