V8 COMET CYCLONE GT CONVERTIBLE

1966 Mercury Comet Cyclone GT Convertible Additional Info:

Vehicle Original VIN : 6H28S633182This 1966 Mercury Comet Cyclone GT Convertible earns your attention with everything from its stacked headlight style to its rare drop-top body. But what really makes it special is the investment in power that keeps it a true silver bullet. Everything about this car shows a detail-oriented style. The blackout hood has a great sporty GT feeling especially because it helps highlight the air grabber hood. This goes well with the rocker stripe, power convertible top, and whole interior for a coordinated style with the roof up or down. And we love the sporty details, like the correct dash-mounted tach, Hurst four-speed shifter, and racing flag center caps of the styled steel wheels. But what you'll love best of all is that this earns its GT name and powerful appearance thanks to what's under the hood. It has a year-correct 390 motor that finished a full performance rebuild within the last few months. So dig into all the extra details about how this Cyclone GT brings some serious power and poise to the streets. HIGHLIGHTS *Real-deal Cyclone GT convertible with less than 2200 made *GT sporty style: blackout hood, dual air scoop hoods, and black rocker stripes *Classic style steel wheels *Premium Mercury styling w/details like the headlights integrated into fenders *Clean lines and bright chrome for a proper Mercury style *Power convertible top *Clean and classic black interior *1966's larger intermediate size makes for more room to bring along everyone *Classic details, including premium seatback trim and working courtesy lights *Driver-oriented setup w/bucket seats, sports steering wheel, and dash-top tach *Upgraded Hurst shifter *Autogage under-dash readouts *Show-ready engine bay *390 cubic-inch V8 rebuilt in 2023 -Cobra Jet heads -Domed pistons -Upgraded cam -Holley four-barrel carburetor -Large aluminum radiator V8 upgrade *Long tube headers feeding an H-pipe dual exhaust *Toploader four-speed manual transmission *Ford 9-inch limited-slip rear with 3.50 gears *Power steering, power brakes, and front discs *Service manuals *Restoration photos We love a well-done Mercury because we just don't see them as often as the more mainstream brands. But this real-deal Comet Cyclone GT reminds us that Mercury was fighting the muscle car wars right alongside the Fairlane GT - Ford just happened to make a few thousand more drop-tops than the more expensive Merc. So it's a car with rarity and legitimacy... but the only thing that really matters is the feeling you get when you take down the top and go for a drive. The mix of wind in your hair and sweet V8 rumble in your ears will remind you why this is THE ONE. Call today!!!
