This is my first car a 73 Comet Gt with a mild 302 with 289 heads. It has a c4 transmission(5 speed coming later). It has a 9in rear end with 4.88 gears. Its got black leather seats and green carpet and panel which are goin to be change. The car runs low 8's in an 1/8 of a mile havent taken it out to a 1/4 mile yet. I was 14 when i built this motor and started to build up on it which is a surprise for a teen to build up a classic muscle car now days. Since everyone is goin to the IMPORT JUNK.
