1961 Comet 99% rust free The Comet was originally planned as an
Edsel model. Ford announced the end of the Edsel program on
November 19, 1959. However, production of 1960 Edsels continued
until late November. The Comet was reassigned to the
Lincoln-Mercury division to sell at Mercury-Comet dealerships,
where it was marketed as a stand-alone product for 1960 and 1961 as
the Comet without any Mercury divisional badging. This car has
59000 miles ( its on the title) and is 99% rust free, it has some
new suspension front and all in rear, all new brakes, gas tank,
original exhaust pipe with new muffler and tail pipe. The interior
is said to be original and seats are in great condition, door
panels are in good shape with some defects, the dash pad may have
been replaced because it's perfect and the radio and both spot
lights even work. The 170 6 cylinder is completely rebuilt with
just over 100 miles and runs fantastic, the 3 on the tree
transmission was also rebuilt and works great with a new clutch,
the rear end and drive shaft were also redone . New water pump,
radiator, hoses, starter, all new tune up parts. This is a rare car
that was painted once in it's life with some cool dealer installed
options. (Bob Jones Denver) I also have the continental kit with
the original spare tire still in it. I have all original paper work
with window sticker and books along with motor and transmission
paper work. Please Note The Following **Vehicle Location is at our
