This 1965 Mercury Comet Caliente 2-door hardtop is finished in Carnival Red with a black vinyl interior, showcasing the bold style of mid-1960s American cars. This Comet was originally an inline-6 car but was later changed to a V8. The paint shows well with no noticeable flaws, and the chrome and brightwork present nicely with only minor imperfections. Under the hood is a Ford 302 CID V8 with a new cam, 289 heads, and 289 badging. It's paired with a smooth 3-speed automatic. This setup delivers the classic V8 sound and lively performance expected from the era. The undercarriage looks good, and it appears repairs were made during restoration. New power steering and power brakes, and rear air shocks have been added for better handling. Inside, the black cabin maintains the car's cohesive look. The front and rear bench seats, door panels, dash, and carpeting are all in good condition. The original AM radio is there but is inop. Overall, this 1965 Comet Caliente is a clean, well-kept example that blends vintage style with dependable V8 power-ideal for shows, weekend cruising, or adding to a collection.
