numbers-matching 390 "S-Code" four-barrel engine producing 335
horsepower mated to a Sport shift Merc-O-Matic transmission and a
3.25 locker rear differential upgrade. The car benefits from an
extensive concourse restoration which included new paint, interior
and refurbished mechanicals. Finished in Emberglo Poly, the paint
and bright work are simply beautiful. Other attributes include:

tachometer The Mercury Cyclone is a special automobile that was
marketed by the Mercury division of Ford from 1964 to 1971.
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. We strongly recommend, welcome, and
