I drove a 72 Comet in high school and have been looking for another one for a couple of years now. I was able to pick up this Comet spring 2017. It is from California that had been sitting for the past 12 years in a garage. Technically, forth owner, but I bought if from someone who picked it up from the second owner's family and flipped it to me. It is a base model as basic as you can get. It was ordered without A/C (in California) and without even a radio. It has 59,xxx miles on it.
When it arrived I found an envelope in the trunk. It had:
*Possible original set of keys
*Original Owner Card
*Original Warranty card
*Owners Manual
*Consumer Information sheet (Acceleration/passing, Stopping, Tire size load capacity)
*Original Order form 10-2-71: Automatic Transmission; 200” 6 cylinder; $2517.25
*Original Purchase Agreement 10-28-71: Vinyl trim; Calif. Emissions; Select Shift Transmission; BSW 6.45x14 Tires; $2536; Salesmen was name Archie from Star Lincoln-Mercury Sales, Glendale, Calif.! LOL
