This 1965 Mercury Comet 404 Station Wagon is a rare sight on today's roads. Only one-third as many Comets were sold compared to their Ford counterparts in '65, making this upper-level 404 trim a true collector's item. The vibrant yellow exterior grabs attention, a throwback to the bold colors of the mid-60s. Chrome brightwork and moldings accentuate its distinctive styling, blending Falcon underpinnings with Galaxie-inspired stacked headlights. Rolling on 14-inch wheels wrapped in P185/75R14 whitewall tires, this wagon maintains its period-correct stance and style. Open the doors to reveal a well-preserved interior finished in medium palomino vinyl. The bench seats, a hallmark of 60s family cars, offer ample space for passengers and cargo alike. An AM radio provides the soundtrack for your cruises, while the column-mounted shifter frees up floor space. The cabin's simplicity reflects the era's focus on functionality and comfort, inviting you to experience automotive design from a bygone era. Lift the hood to reveal the 289 cubic inch V8 engine, a powerplant known for its reliability and versatility. Paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission, this drivetrain offers a balance of performance and ease of use. Recent maintenance includes refreshed spark plugs, wires, radiator, and fluids, ensuring this classic runs as good as it looks. The Ford 8" rear end provides durability, while the stock suspension - coil springs with shocks up front and leaf springs in the rear - delivers a smooth ride characteristic of the era.
