Mercury Comet (1962)
for sale
Price: US $4,000.00
Price: US $4,000.00
Comet has all the hard work done, front suspension is all new 65 comet pieces with with disc brake, a rebuilt steering box included but not installed. I welded in 2 square tubing frame connectors, narrowed rear 3 (explorer 8.8 with 373 posi, 31 spine). Front tires like new, rear tires are new. I was building this as a gasser tribute without the front straight axle.
Engine is a full roller 302/347 stroker crate motor rated at 400hp, with new tunnel ram and 450 holleys, new big block mustang aluminum radiator with electric fan. New one wire alternator and hi volume aluminum water pump. MSD box with HD coil and distributor.
Trans is a Summit C6 rated at 400hp with a 2400 stall convertor.
Comet just needs a driveshaft and the brakes lines run (included). Front wire harness and radiator hoses need installed
I replaced the bumpers with modified mustang valances they were damaged (not shown) in the move will need repaired.
Only reason I selling is to make room for a bucket list item (HOA are a bunch of radicals). There is alot of other work done, but not mentioned. This will be one cool rare ride. Handle good and maybe pull the wheels.
Title is clear but lost during move, will need a salvage title probably.
