got the body & dash from fomocomav..other parts from my parts box..& an AMT 67 Mustang.  Will it work? Am I able to complete this one? I really am not sure as yet ,   Keep watching for updates...

That Chassis should work all you have to is remove some material behind the tank

wheeelbase is longer, I think it will need to be sectioned in the middle...

change my mind on this build, think I will go with a 69 Cougar chassis plate.  The interior is complete now, photos later...

I used the amt 67/68 mustang chassis on a amt maverick and shorten the front frame in front of the firewall a small amout and penned the pieces together for strength.  Worked out great.    Will use the mustang chassis on a Comet as well.

Good luck and looks like success.

Wow, these restorations are quite challenging.
