Description from the seller
GENERAL:
Mercury Comet of 1966 with approximately 52,000 kilometers. It is in good condition, unrestored and totally original.
It was originally registered in the province of Málaga in 1966 and still retains its original license plate, being a very rare model to see in Spain. It has spent the last years parked on blocks and covered in a cover in the heart of a large private collection. As an interesting fact about the model, the Mercury Comet originally started in 1960 as a compact related to the Ford Falcon, but for the third generation introduced precisely in 1966, it underwent a complete redesign switching to Ford's mid-size platform (the same as the Fairlane). This gave it a much more muscular and stately presence, characterized by its vertically stacked dual front headlights, which makes units from this year among the most coveted and recognizable by enthusiasts of classic American cars.
BODYWORK AND PAINT:
Body in very good overall condition, both of sheet metal and paint and chrome. In original condition with brand-new wheels.
MECHANICS:
In perfect mechanical condition.
INTERIOR:
Its interiors are in very good original condition, with some signs of normal wear from use, but perfectly preserved in its beautiful and bright light tone.
DOCUMENTATION:
Vehicle with ITV in force and preserving its original Málaga provincial registration from 1966.
PICKUP / DELIVERY:
The car is available for pickup in Borox (Toledo).

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
