1974 Mercury Comet with only 52k original miles $10,500

[deac]

You don’t have to be a collector to enjoy this 74 Mercury Comet. 52k miles on the original Inline 6 with newly rebuilt carburetor. Starts right up and runs good. Original interior with mild tears in drivers seat fabric. Willing to possibly trade for a truck.

This is not my car and I have no stake in the sale

Probably the nicest one on the planet...

These remind me of the Dodge Aspen in the way they present themselves.

Looks like a grandma’s car to me. The cow catcher bumpers don’t help the looks either. Otherwise it looks to be in very nice shape except for the front seat. I wonder how hard it would be to match that material?

It looks like a pleasant little car, a part of its time

but not often seen today.  I think the asking price

should be $4500, not $10,500.

I owned a Maverick counterpart, '74 4 door Emberglow paint, LDO, air, the works. 19K on the clock. Mint one owner elderly lady car. Paid $2,500 which at the time was a princely sum for it.

'74 was a terrible year trying to meet smog standards with that 250 6. Car got at best 16 MPG on the highway; older Falcons I owned regularly got low 20's MPG.

I had a gf in HS that had one exactly like this. Same *^*&^&^ Brown colour. That thing was a dog! As much as this looks like a clean original example, I would not walk I would run away as fast as possible. Too many bad (psychotic) memories! LOL
