1963 Mercury Comet

1963 Mercury Comet S-22 Convertible. Only 5,700 of the optional S-22 (sports) package were released. A lot of original components. Inline V-6 is in good shape. Runs, drives and brakes very well. Some trim pieces need to be repaired. The electric top is fairly new and opens and closes well.
I have owned it for a year, it has been well taken care of and put some additional work into it..
The engine was detailed to production specs and is period correctNew generator, plugs, wires, valve cover gasketRebuilt carbNew floormats; carpet in good shapeTires in great shape and recently added brand new tire (2 spare tires included)New door hinges and exhaust system
Good opportunity for someone who has the skill/time to complete the restoration on his/her own or this could be a great donor car for a current Comet S-22 project with an existing decent frame. Not a show car but in decent shape and needs a little attention. Unfortunately, I travel a lot for business and I don't have the time or skill to repair it to the proper specs - I just want to drive. In the spirit of being completely transparent, the driver side door does not hang well and is not used at the moment. The rocker panel (frame rail) and J-box on the driver side need to be repaired/replaced. Passenger side needs a partial repair and patched with a reinforcement plate. I have received a quote on the repairs and it is reasonable.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or needs.
Thanks,
Todd
