    Only that I love your station wagon more than mine.... and I've only seen it in pictures. The 64 Fairlane is my all time favorite car, and to make it a wagon on top of it... would love to have one.

    Just joking with you of course. I know the combined value of my wagon and the Comet is probably a lot more than your wagon is.

    But love is blind, they say.

    Roger,

    We love that comet but I really love the wagon. She's far from perfect but she's ours.
    I'd have to give up a wagon or a sprint to get your comet.
    The sprint is more likely to go than the wagon, only because the sprint wants to fight me every time I work on it.

    The new motor and t 5 is in but I have a noise and vibration that seems to be clutch related.. yippy I get to take it apart again.

    I'll keep an eye out for another 64 fairlane wagon for ya.

    New Gas tank comin' now

    Gene and I replaced the fuel pump Saturday and it took forever to get gas to flow and even then, just barely would stay running. So I drained the tank (again) and pulled the sender to check the strainer. OMG. Worst tank I've ever seen. And sending unit. So out they go and a new one from ebay is on its way. After we pulled the old tank we propped a gas can up in the hole and fed a hose to the line - it fired off and ran very nice for a car that sat since 1997.

    I put the infamous 1940 Holley on it that I discussed in my Autolite thread from last year: http://www.rainierfalcons.com/forums...9&referrerid=5. This carb never had the vacuum advance system built in to accommodate the fact that the distributor doesn't have a mechanical advance system, so will try and swap out with one of the Autolite's I have to [rebuild still] to see to it that this 170 has all the pep it can have.

    Just a note to say the comet has flown home under its own power. Drive was uneventful (thankfully - I have too much drama going on at the moment, didn't need more). I had to replace the tank and sending unit and will, now that it is home, start on the detail work. Fun stuff!

    Comet

    That is a beautiful Comet! My first car at 16 was a 62 I bought for 50 bucks. What year is it? I love the color and the bucket seats.

    It's a Comet! It blazed on into the carport!

    Gina, it is a '62 S-22. These came with everything but a V8 (that didn't happen until 1963) - but maybe it has the "Pursuit 170" we all dream of having.
