Description of 1968 Mercury Comet

Very good condition. The trim and grille and bumpers on this car are original and have not been rechromed. they are in very good condition. The mileage is correct. It had 54. 00 miles on it when I bought it. Car has new paint and detailed inside of trunk area and under hood area. all trim was removed before paint. This is a very rust free car. I have picks of it before paint work was done. It has new carpet. new headliner. new recovered seats. door panels are original and the dash pad needs restored or replaced. It was originally a 200 6 cylinder with 3 speed trans. shifter on column. Steering column and shifter has been rebuilt. I originally bought this car in 1999. drove it for 4 years and sold it. Bought it back and started a big block project with it. The car currently has no engine or trans installed in it. What I have included are as follows--running 390 engine with 427 Low-Riser heads Part number C3AE-6090-D. it has a cast iron 4V intake C4AE-9425-G on it not. but I am including a Ford Aluminum Factory 427 Sidewinder intake # C6AE9424/J (one just sold on ebay for $1350 pretty rare item). also a Big Input shaft Top Loader 4 Speed Transmission Part # RUG-AU which is coded for a 1970 Ford Fairlane 429 CJ/SCJ (2 listed on ebay now for 1995. 00 and $2500) also. a new fly wheel. also a new 9" Ford 3:71 Ratio Posi-rearend ($1100)with a fresh powder coated housing (third member and housing not assembled yet. . also a fresh powder coated trans tunnel shifter plate for the four speed. and a restored shifter with new linkage. The windows tracks have been redone. all the door glass is solid and not loose in the tracks. new weather strips in the doors and trunk. new rear glass rubber seal installed when headliner was replaced. I am sure there is some stuff I am forgetting to mention as far as parts included (other small items). I also have a set of vintage American Torque Thrust Wheels 14x7. 5 that are in real nice condition. This car just needs the big block stuff installed and you would have a real power house to drive.
