That is a sweet Comet! When I was stationed at El Toro, a friend gave me a 1964 Falcon that had been set-up for racing with a hot 302 and a four speed top loader, narrowed 9" out back with 4.88 gears and a spool. I drove it to the hangar once, only to have the back end shoot out when I tapped the throttle going over a bump. Open headers and Fred Flintstone floor boards were a lousy mix, and back in those days, nobody sold patch panels for the floor pan. I gave it to another Marine before I went overseas.
That Comet is SICK!!! LOVE IT!!!! I know this will sound kind of superficial after watching the awesome "Will it run", "New Shoes" and "Exhaust Time" videos that you guys have done, but can you do some follow-up on the electrical system and the headlights and taillights and any issues/challenges that you guys ran into with the electrical system on the Comet? LOVE your guys channel!!!! :)
Boy does that thing bring back the memories for me. Had a 64 Caliente that somebody swapped the 260 for a 289. I put a C-4 from a late model (at that time). I used it to run back and forth from Fort Knox to Pittsburgh. Man that thing would just sail down the road. But it got Yankee dust in the floors, so it had to go.
So nice man. You’re first exhaust job? Well done sir. I love that little comet 💫 I would so love to hang with you and work on that bad ass car. Ford made the best little V8s. I’m so jealous. I live in Kannapolis, NC. Maybe one day I could drive down to SC to visit. I drive a 1969 CJ Mach 1. She a fun car too. Love you videos brother. Thanks for sharing.
When I was a young man I bought a 64 Comet Caliente with the 271 hp 289 in Ontario Canada in May 1970, white with black trim and only 20k, it was hot stuff for a small block back then and I surprised several Chevy's who would have had the 283's and Dodge's with 318's. The most beautiful car I ever owned.
Sounds good and the wheel & tire package sure fit the car great now look for a used 5.0 engine at a junk yard to put in the car and you would be set to travel with no problem of adding oil.
The comet sounds awesome with that new exhaust just the perfect amount of growl. I am just dying to see the Porsche back together and running. That color you had it painted looks awesome.
I installed mufflers and did custom exhaust systems. Acetylene welded everything. Gas welding gets penetration . Never got at leaks . Good job though she sounds awesome.
The exhaust sounds great even without a link pipe just after the header .slash cutting the outlet parallel to the sill will stop your ankles hitting them Great work and your weldings improved 👍
Mike You have made a decent exustt pipe mate it sounds well they will know ur coming down the road this car will look cool painted black uyou need a cheap spray gun so u can flash these cars over to tidy them up mate this is a great chanel keep cool Phil in the uk
Slash cut those tips on even with the body side of the car and it will look even cooler. Nice welds and it sounds great!
Turn out getting better and better
Sounds really sweet!! Can"t wait to hear it with the cam!!
You just can't beat the sound of a set of flow masters !!!
Love that car and it new exhaust.....sounds just fine and dandy !
Great one, Edelbrock is great😀👍
KOOL VEDIO ,KOOL HEADERS ,KOOL JOB,,KOOL PROFORMANCE~!!!!!!!!!!!
This thing is a weapon! It's a real sleeper
So cooooooool! Can’t wait for the next video.
I liked the factory wheels but you did a great job with ones that you chose for it.
Sounds AWESOME.
Still close my eyes when I hear or see someone welding:) Car looks great!
I really like that car. Makes me want to go get one and tinker on it myself.

Love your videos. CanIt wait for the 911 driving video. With all your automotive restoration, too bad you don’t have a place for a lift. Thanks
Excellent job and sound

This car sounds great, it gives it that real throaty sound. Plus putting the tailpipes right in front makes it so much nicer. Great job on this!!!

I don’t think we could get the high performance 289 here in the USA
Sounds good. My Brother had a 1963 Comet convertible.
Great stuff!
My first car was a 1965 comet. That was a few years ago, and I still miss it.
Mine too. What a better time that was.
Sounds good and the wheel & tire package sure fit the car great now look for a used 5.0 engine at a junk yard to put in the car and you would be set to travel with no problem of adding oil.
Sounds good
Wish that this car would've gotten the same attention as the Porsche.
I LOVE IT!!
The comet sounds awesome with that new exhaust just the perfect amount of growl. I am just dying to see the Porsche back together and running. That color you had it painted looks awesome.
Great job on the build. It's gonna be a nice car when you done with it. The exhaust sounds amazing.
A very cool car! You should definitely keep it. And keep slowly fixing it up.
Nice job, especially for a first time! A heck of a lot better than I could do first time. Looking forward to more on the Comet.
Great beat. .
Great work you guys are always killin it! Making everyone smile👍
Nice car with a nice sound well done.
I like it! Good job, and I know it sucks but I enjoy seeing other people working on dirt too! Keep it up brother!

wow that sounds damn nice.
Thank you!
Nicely done! Looks and sounds awesome!
I installed mufflers and did custom exhaust systems. Acetylene welded everything. Gas welding gets penetration . Never got at leaks . Good job though she sounds awesome.
Very nice. Our welder uses shield gas and gets nice penetration 🙂
Мотору легче дышать стало))Звук солидный. Ещё бы внешку машине сделать. Класс!
Sounds mean! 🤘😠
The exhaust sounds great even without a link pipe just after the header .slash cutting the outlet parallel to the sill will stop your ankles hitting them
Great work and your weldings improved 👍
