Mercury : Comet deluxe

please read this description carefully i said READ don't just look at the pictures like a five year old . If you can't read english forget about it no lowlife tire kickers! YOU BID YOU BUY too many dead beats on ebay if this car don't sell this time it's going to the scrapper! Up for auction a low mileage car . The car was bought by my father from a colleague at work. was his mothers car. She didn't drive it much and remained in a garage most of its life my older brother did drive it for 2 years . The car has all the options that was available for a 74 comet factory air condition. front disc brakes . power steering. deluxe body trim. vinyl roof. deluxe seats. rear window defogger . deluxe 4 speakers w/ fader control. and to top it off a 302 v 8 automatic! Once in a while you see other 74 comets on sale here but NEVER one with this many options.

Lets start with the engine it only has 82. 00 miles runs drives great would drive it any were with no problem. Automatic trans i had rebuilt last year the brakes are fine Replaced the master last year also no electric problems . Everything works now for the body which is almost perfect for a 40 year old car has all the original paint. which is fading but still has a shine . The vinyl roof is like new have to see it to believe it not a rip or anything! Has some scratches and tiny dents from over the years for a car of this vintage.

In my opinion it's not a big deal their are only 1 rust spots when i bought the car one the passenger side quarter panel has some rot i put por-15 on it a few years ago so it won't get any worse thats it. All chrome is like new now for the chassis it's excelente no rot on the frame floors and trunk are solid! Trunk has all the original spare tire jack and hardware.

Now for some of the thing that are going to need some attention you didn't expect a 40 year old car not to have a few things that need attention: the drivers side shock needs a new bushing the interior is in great shape no cracks on the dash . The carpet is fine their are seam splits in the front bench seat and a rip in the front side vinyl. The side view mirror adjuster lever is broken i bought a nos ford replacement lever will be included . The door panels are fine just the very top of the door panels are faded . he head liner only has one rip. The original am radio was taken out for a jc pennys am-fm 8-track player . The dash was not cut the original philco am radio will be included the back seat is like new . Now for the air conditioner the only thing that needs to be done : the o rings that to go to the compressor are bad so it lost its charge . I bought a new o-ring kit will be included once that's done you're good to go

The ac worked very good in the car . ad the system redone a few years ago and had it converted to the new refrigerant. The power steering pump while it works its not the correct pump . The pump that's in the car has a male end . he original pump had a female on the back of the pump . The original pump went bad had it rebuilt still no good couldn't find a rebuilt one . o luck finding one on the internet so i had no choice but to put a early pump in the car with a mail end at the back but to able to fit it i had no choice but to cut a hole in the shock tower.

It's not a big deal all you have to do is try to find the right pump and tack weld a piece of metal in the shock tower a pint of touch up paint is also included also the grill has been repaired the plastic got weak from age some of the pieces fell off and glued back on i can hook you up with another grill if you want if you want a car that needs little work this is for you. hope i car find this rare car a good home it deserves you can call me barry at

and please leave a message if i don't pick up good luck
