Introduced in 1964 as the Mercury Comet Cyclone, the Cyclone replaced the S-22 as the performance-oriented version of the Mercury Comet model line. Within Mercury, the Cyclone was positioned between the Cougar pony car and the Marquis/Marauder full-size two-doors. Though largely overshadowed by the Cougar, the Cyclone was positioned as a muscle car, representing the Mercury brand in racing as a clone of the Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt. This car drives and handles like a dream, blending the charm of vintage design with the ease of modern drivability and power. With only 35,150 miles on the odometer, this Cyclone GT stands as a tribute to classic American craftsmanship. The buyer will receive all the original paperwork including owner's manual and warranty card which was never used or registered (both in great condition). The Cyclone GT Convertible is very rare with slightly over 2,200 ever produced; there are not many left like this one finished in Emberglo Poly in such amazing condition.
