This Comet 404 A/FX Re-Creation has undergone an incredible build. It was updated with a Carroll Shelby aluminum block 427ci engine with Ford aluminum cylinder heads, a solid roller cam and a Quick Fuel Tech carb system. Bolted on for even more power is the Hampton 871 blower and Jessel belt drive system. An Art Carr Powerglide transmission, Performance Automatic bellhousing, Strange aluminum 9" center with Strange axles ensure the power makes it to the 15 inch Monocoque wheels and 32.0x14-15 Hoosier tires. This Comet is making 800+ horsepower and running 9 second quarters. It was recently pulling those numbers, while the owner had the car running out at Indy. An absolutely beautiful build, with real gold leafing, tons of polished and chromed pieces in the engine bay and underneath the car. The entire trunk and fuel cell is aluminum. Wilwood 4 wheel disc brakes and a Vega style Flaming River steering box give the more a little more driveability. This Comet is street legal and runs out extremely well. Tons and tons of money put into this car and now it's available to you at less than you could build it for. Don't miss out on this one! Call today.
