Background Story of this 1966 Mercury Comet

Overview of 1966 Mercury Comet For Sale by Owner

When discussing the classic car segment, one brand is often overlooked. The Mercury brand was designed by Ford to offer premium solutions that bridge the gap between Ford and Lincoln. One of their most loved models was the Mercury Comet that became a successful standalone model. It was one of the first mid-sized cars in history and was also dubbed the "senior compact". What we have brought to you here is a 1966 Mercury Comet Caliente Convertible, a top-trim, often underrated muscle car. With 70631 miles on its odometer, this beauty flaunts a few aftermarket features as well. Located in Sparks, Nevada, it is ready to fulfill all your classic car desires.

Exterior and Interior

One of the best colors one can put on a classic car is red, and that is exactly the case with this 1966 Mercury Comet Caliente Convertible as well. Giving it a beautiful contrast is a beige convertible soft top. The white sports stripes on the hood and the sides of the car add to its personality. The most notable features of this car are its double-stacked grille and headlights, which were part of a major restyle of the model year. Our subject car sits on a set of 14’ American Racing wheels that feature Chrome hubcaps. Meanwhile, BFGoodrich Radial T/A rubber tires ensure that you have optimal grip. The interior of this 1966 Mercury Comet Caliente Convertible is done in black leather. It is beautified with Woodgrain trim and chrome trim on the dash. The driver gets a vintage two-spoke steering wheel along with good-old analog gauges. Its current owner has installed an aftermarket stereo system. The door panels are beige to match the convertible soft top.

Engine

This 1966 Mercury Comet Caliente Convertible is powered by a 390ci V8 engine, which was a high-performance option that makes this example quite rare. This powerhouse makes use of a 2-barrel carburetor and reportedly produces 265 hp and 401 lb. ft of torque. This version is known to be a torque-rich and smoother ride. It sends power to the rear wheels through a smooth C6 3-speed automatic transmission.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$22,990
SOLD

Its most recent engine build was completed in 2015 at the renowned SoCal Speed Shop by Jimmy Shine, whose signature remains on the dash.

1953 Mercury Monterey

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$33,999

Mercury itself, the mid-tier luxury division of Ford sat between Ford and Lincoln, and, sadly, was retired in 2011. So, this is one of those classic American names from a defunct manufacturer. That only adds to the cachet of this 1953 Mercury Monterey. The fact that its maker is no more only adds more to the car’s value, as does its Flathead V8, auto gearbox and mere 1,700 miles. A discerning collector will have no hesitation in snapping up this car, while a budding collector should seriously consider acquiring it sans delay.
