Vehicle Description
4820-TPA 1965 MERCURY COMET CALIENTE CONVERTIBLE
This 1965 Mercury Comet Caliente Convertible represents less than
4% of total Comet production for that year, making it a scarce find
among premium drop-tops. The Jamaican Yellow exterior radiates
against a black vinyl convertible top, creating a bold visual
impact. Chrome REV wheels measure 15 inches, wrapped in Kumo tires
- 185/60R15 up front and meatier 225/70R15 in the rear. A
power-operated top mechanism adds modern convenience while
maintaining the classic profile. The chrome trim and accents
amplify the car's powerful lines.
The black vinyl interior delivers a purposeful,
performance-oriented atmosphere. Fresh carpet lines the floor while
bucket seats provide ideal positioning behind the wheel. A
column-mounted shifter and center console blend convenience with
style. The AM/FM Bluetooth stereo system brings modern audio
capabilities while maintaining the dash's classic appearance. A
supplementary voltage gauge mounted below the dash helps monitor
electrical system performance.
A 302 V8 sits front and center, fed by an Edelbrock 4-barrel
carburetor perched atop an Edelbrock aluminum high-rise intake
manifold designed for the 289. The engine bay showcases chrome Ford
valve covers and matching air cleaner. An AOD 4-speed automatic
transmission with overdrive delivers power to a Ford 9-inch rear
end. The suspension system combines front coils with rear leaf
springs and air shocks, while power steering provides enhanced
control. A Cherry Bomb muffler adds aggressive sound to the single
exhaust system.
