Overhead there's a black power convertible top that's in good condition and a red vinyl boot is included with the car.
#1963 MERCURY COMET MANUAL#
You'll note that this car has a three-speed manual transmission, so it feels lively and is fun to drive and the factory AM radio provides vintage-sounding entertainment. Factory gauges are in a chrome panel that seems to mirror the taillight panel out back and while it covers only the basics, it sure looks good doing it.
#1963 MERCURY COMET DRIVER#
There's plenty of room with the bench seat and the driver gets to sit behind an attractive 3-spoke steering wheel with simple chrome horn ring. With a black car, is there any better interior than red? The beautifully restored upholstery in this Comet ably demonstrates the upscale look that Mercury was seeking, with silver piping, two kinds of vinyl on the seat covers, and ornate door panels that add a bright white contrast strip. The chrome appears to be mostly original and in good condition, with bright bumpers, a grille that isn't bent, and ornate little details that delight, from the fender-mounted ornaments to the awesome 'Comet' script on the trunk lid.
#1963 MERCURY COMET PROFESSIONAL#
There are a few signs of use, which is especially evident on black cars, but a professional buff would really make this black paint look great. Finished in basic black, it looks like a grown-up's car, and thanks to a repaint a few years ago, it has the kind of elegance usually reserved for much bigger cars. Not just badge engineered, the Comet wears unique sheetmetal that definitely looks like a Mercury, particularly with the bold grille, sweeping side trim and intricate rear panel, all of which were borrowed from the bigger models. Obviously the Comet was Mercury's version of the Falcon, but true to the Mercury brand mission, it's a bit more upscale with more features, more comfort, and a unique look. The chrome appears to be mostly original and in good condition, with bright bumpers, a grille.

Like the tidy proportions and easy handling of a Ford Falcon but want something a little less common? How about a vintage drop-top that has a ton of class but is easy on the wallet when it comes time for gas, maintenance and insurance? And a bargain price wouldn't hurt either, right? Then take a good, long look at this 1963 Mercury Comet convertible, a cool find that stands out in a crowded field.

As a Mercury, early Comets received better-grade interior trim than concurrent Falcons and a slightly longer wheelbase. The Comet was initially based on the compact Ford Falcon, then on the intermediate Ford Fairlane, and finally on the compact Ford Maverick. The compact Comet shared a naming convention associated with the ongoing Space Race of the early 1960s with the Mercury Meteor, which was introduced as the base-trim full-size Mercury sedan. In its first two years, it was marketed as the "Comet" and from 1962 as the "Mercury Comet". The Mercury Comet is an automobile that was produced by Mercury from 1960–19–1977 - variously as either a compact or an intermediate car.
