Default Re: Any history on this car?

Here is a pic of my Dad's 64 Mercury Comet.
This was a 427 4-speed.
I remember dad telling me alot of story's about this car.
If I remember correctly there were only 25-50 of these car's built.
This car came factory with slicks,open headers,roll bar,tach ready to race.
He said it had really long slapper bar's and when you banged the gears it would feel like the floor board was coming apart.
This pic was taken at the Danville IL. Airport,The reason there was mud on the tires is Dad ran it off the end of the runway.
