Hard day watching my sweet baby drive off . Had that bike for 6 years . Decided to sell it to buy another Fairlane for my grandson my son and I to fix up for his 1st car . Found a 66 Comet Sports Coupe for the exact amount that I sold my Harley for . Brand new rebuilt 351 Cleveland by a Dallas shop that builds race engines . 10.5 pistons and a 3\4 cam . New high rise manifold new Holly 650 double pump carb . New clutch and a Top Loader 4 speed . My son and grand son already ordering parts LOL Real solid car and NO rust . He turns 16 in a year and a half so we have time . [Linked Image] [Linked Image]

That is a pretty scary car for a 16 year old, but I like it.

Nice ride. But you may want to wait till he turns 18 to give it to him. That's a lot of pressure for a sixteen year old to handle. I know it happened to me. Just my option.

I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed.

That's not a split tank. It's a piece of trim running down the center of the tank.
