Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this super slick, 1964 Mercury
Comet Cyclone 2 Door Hardtop. Mercury added the performance
package, known as the Cyclone, to the Comet line in 1964. The
Cyclones for 1964 featured standard, a 289 V8, chrome wheel covers
and special Cyclone badging.
The car here is a wonderful example presenting itself in complete
stock format. It is beautifully finished in Burgundy exterior paint
over two tone, pearl / gold interior. The car here is powered by
its 289 V8, 4 Barrel carb, 3 speed "Merc-O-Matic" transmission and
rear wheel drive. Highlights include bucket seats, stock am radio,
dash mounted "Cyclone Tach", bucket seats, console, power brakes,
original chrome wheel covers, front and rear sway bars, etc.
The car has been ground up restored and remains in wonderful
condition. The interior features correct upholstery, refurbished
original dash, newer correct carpeting and an excellent headliner.
The exterior paint is excellent, the body has excellent fit and
clean lines, and the trim and chrome appear to be either excellent
original or lightly refurbished. Under the hood is clean and has a
stock appearance with the correct air cleaner, chrome valve covers
and washer bag.
Mechanically, the car is spot on. The engine starts with no issue,
does not smoke, and sounds very good through its stock style
exhaust. It is important to note that this is a car that was
optioned with power steering. The power steering components do come
with the car as photo'd.
In a time when "Big Iron" performance dominated the tracks and the
showroom floor, The Cyclone was one of a hand full of cars coming
on to the scene that were smaller, lighter and performers. The
precursor the "muscle car". The car here is very crisp all over and
ready to show or go!
