There is something undeniably magnetic about a classic that marries
style and raw performance, and the 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente
Convertible is a shining example. A rare find, this Pacific Blue
beauty carries the spirit of the open road, enhanced by a power
convertible top that beckons the summer breeze. Beyond the
eye-catching custom pinstriping and the iconic 15-inch Rocket
5-spoke wheels, this Comet is equipped with a 5-speed manual
transmission that transforms every highway cruise into a thrilling
adventure. For those who crave a blend of nostalgia and spirited
driving, this car demands your attention.
Step inside to a cabin that balances classic charm with thoughtful
upgrades. The ProCar high-back front bucket seats provide excellent
support wrapped in medium blue vinyl, while the rear bench invites
passengers to enjoy the ride. The dash features a tasteful array of
Auto Meter Phantom II gauges alongside original-style speedometer
and odometer, perfectly complementing the Alpine AM/FM/AUX stereo
system. Comfort is assured with functional air conditioning and the
tactile pleasure of a Hurst floor shifter within easy reach.
Under the hood roars a 289ci V8 engine, outfitted with a Weiand
Street Warrior intake and a Brawler 4-barrel carburetor that fuels
strong acceleration and a throaty exhaust note. Chrome valve covers
and a gleaming chrome air cleaner add to the visual appeal beneath
the hood, while dual exhaust with long tube headers deliver a
powerful rumble that commands attention. The T5 5-speed manual
transmission offers crisp engagement, paired with a Ford 9-inch
rear axle and lowered suspension equipped with tubular upper
control arms and Cal Tracs for confident handling.
