Default Re: "lil red" 1965 Mercury Comet Caliente

Folks, atch,
We are still driving the Comet. With Johns help I did tighten the adjustment on the Comet steering box a 1/4 turn and it did tighten up the slop in the steering wheel. Keep tuning! Keep driving!
Have spoken with Mike at Eaton and they are building me a new set of springs with less arch and slightly longer. We will see how those set the car. Looking for something near 24 inch dimension at the rear wheel well.
Last night, John and his wife in their nice 55 Club Sedan. We crusied to the ice cream stand and then to a park on the lake:




This is from last week in Erie:


Regards,
Chris and Cheryl
