I actually owned a 1964 Comet Client when I was 17. 2 dr ht. Black with red interior. 200 cubic inch automatic. Loved that car. Plan to recreate one soon. And this is really nice in that color. Nice job.

Very well built and photographed

Great build and great backdrops! I like the subtle washes you used on the grille, rear trim and wheels. I used to have a '64 Comet wagon 20-some years ago; nice car. 

One thing I spotted - you have Illinois plates from 1962; these are the 1964 plates if you want them - purple and white:

I remember helping my dad take them off our '61 Dodge when we got the '65 plates.
