I was very fortunate to position the decal back together and you have to look very hard to find were I broke the decal.

One difference between the '67 Comet and the '67 Fairlane is the rear deck difference. The rear deck is longer on the Comet than the Fairlane and it shows in the AMT kit. I made a plate for the chassis which will be painted with Tamiya TS-6 Matt Black. The exhaust tips will either be bent into a straight position or removed for the aluminum tubing.

I made a set of exhaust tips that will need to be foiled. I trimmed the exhaust and mounted the new exhaust tips. I need to add some flat black paint to the inside of the new exhaust tips.
