1965 Mercury Comet

Caliente Convertible

8 - Cyl.

Automatic

Gasoline

This vehicle was acquired by an even swap. I have no prior history on the vehicle. All the car needed was some mechanical TLC and the new convertible top has a power unit that works great! The vehicle seems to be a recent paint job that could use some light sanding and buffing to bring the paint to a gleaming red. The interior is perfect with no tears, rips or discoloration. The engine is a 289 V8 that runs super nice with a Holly 4 barrel carb and dual exhaust. I do believe the engine at some point must have been rebuilt; starts instantly with no smoke or heavy breathing. I checked the body for any bondo and could not find any. The body seems to be straight. The car drives and stops excellently due to the power steering and power brakes. This car should give miles of smiles for anyone that drives it! This vehicle is sold "AS IS" with no warranty implied. It is also being offered locally and can be pulled at anytime. There is a $2000.00 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of winning bid.
