Description:

1961 Mercury Comet

This 1961 Comet is a 3 on the tree manual. One floor pan patch under drivers feet and a few tiny spots on the lower doors but this car was in the south until a few years and is very solid. Frame, lower quarter, floors and trunk are solid. U code 170 ci inline 6 cylinder engine. Lots of work done including new radiator and gas tank, lots of receipts. Interior is very nice, runs and drives well. The Comet was supposed to be an Edsel but that company folded and they were taken by Mercury. The 60-61 Comet's don't say Edsel or Mercury anywhere...just Comet, pretty rare and interesting. Very fun car and look at those fins! NH is a no title state. I can provide bil of sale and copy of registration as well as VIN verification. No trades please.

Has a fresh NH inspection sticker - no issues. Here are the items addressed/replaced/repaired in the last 2 years:

New radiator

New Gas tank, filler neck and sending unit

Rear wheel cylinders

Temp & oil pressure switches

Thermostat

Fuel pump

Ignition coil

Plugs, wires, cap & rotor

Speedometer is not working and like many southern cars some seals are dried out. It will get a little water in it if left out in the rain. Valves clatter, may need adjusting but runs fine.
