Description
1965 Mercury Comet Caliente
The Mercury Comet was produced from 1960 to 1969 and then again from 1971 to 1977 and during those production years was available as either a compact or intermediate sized car. The Mercury Comet was originally a design take off of the Ford Falcon, then was modified off the Ford Fairlane model and then finally on the Ford Maverick compact automobile. When Mercury produced the early versions of the Comet model they all had better grade interiors and somewhat longer wheelbases than the Ford Falcons came with.
The 1965 Mercury Comet benefited from some updated styling changes both front and rear from the 1964 models. The headlights were now stacked and several different engine packages were available from the factory. The top of the line power option for 1965 was a 289 cubic inch V8 with 271 horsepower and a four speed manual transmission that would normally be found on the Ford Mustang as a performance option. This particular 1965 Mercury Comet has a modified V8 engine and sports an aftermarket fiberglass ram air hood.
