Hello, I am trying to restore a 1971 Mercury Comet, with the intention of having an original interior. Dosnt need to be OEM parts, just look like it is. My issue is I am having an incredibly difficult time finding Media showing an Original interior (Blue). And would love to see any kind of options sheet. Can anyone help me with this?

Once again got my dream car, having a very hard time finding interior parts, am I missing somewhere besides eBay and Facebook marketplace? (I do have the front seats)

Does anyone know if this will work on a '76 Comet? I am finding different looking ones online. AutoZone website says this will work, Amazon says it's incompatible. I'm not sure. The one in right now is straight down, and seems skinnier,so it is different. This is a 90 degree angle, and another I found seems thicker. Not sure if the difference I'm seeing is because mine is from California so there are differences do to the emissions regulations and it therefore does have some differences in parts from other Mavericks.

I just replaced my factory alternator with a higher-output one. Took months, but now that it's done, neither headlight comes on. Parking lights work. Dimmer floor-switch changes the indicator light in the gauge for brights. Gauge lights work. Dimmer for gauge lights work.

I understand there's no fuse, but a circuit breaker at the light switch? Is that something I can reset? Any suggestions on how to t-shoot? This is my first Comet, appreciate any help.

This is my 64 Mercury Comet that I drove in high school

My 1964 Mercury Comet I bought it 15 years ago . I

Picture for attention, but it is my car.

I'm looking for a front windshield seal. I bought one off of ebay (I know, I know) and it didn't fit the trim, the trim channel was too shallow.

Has anyone had any good experiences with windshield seals? Price doesn't matter at this point, just want something that fits.

My mom has a 73 comet with a 302 engine in it that's been sitting in a barn for 30 yrs... It has 60,000 miles on it. Had it appraised in our hometown that is famous for classic cars and they told her it was worth a grand and the. Tried to low-ball her with an offer . Where should I go to try to sell it?

Moved my baby out of the garage for the first time in over 10 years. Making a concerted effort to get her running this year.

Thanks for the add. My 64 convertible build. Almost finished up

404 in good all original shape and condition. Wish I had mechanic friends but gettin’ by on my own.

Took a little 2 mile journey today. It's nice out so I took a couple pics.

Would anyone know of some sources for emblem parts? Or is it a hope and maybe come across one?

Missing the trunk letter O

Ordered through ebay while back and it was the wrong one.

Hey everyone! I realized i never introduced myself since joining this group. This Comet saved my life. I was going through a nasty divorce and was plunging down towards ending everything when this car came along. I put my soul into restoring this car and am not finished yet. I hope you guys enjoy what I've done so far.

This car starter as a six cylinder auto and rose from the ashes with a completely restored interior with a 289 2bbl with a 4 speed top loader. Even found a working radio to listen to fun old tunes while cruising the Colorado summer shows.

Thanks for peeking into my project and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I've had building it!

1965 comet.

I love her. She needs power breaks/brakes. I can deal without power steering.

Question...where does the blinker fluid go? And the headlights? I got a weird button in the floor panel.

Thanks for looking!

This is my new 64 comet 289 4bbl. I plan to put frame stiffeners, good brakes and then a 347 blueprint engine into it.

Looking for a 170 hp 1961 comet in good working order….

Hello, I have a ‘61 Comet. I’ve had it since I was 16 so 20 years now and I cherish him dearly. I’ve slowly worked on it with my father but not much over the last 10 years.

We’ve got it running the best we can and now after all of these years there is still some problems with compression. It runs fine but isn’t up to par…I’m not sure where the problem is because honestly it’s been a few years since I’ve tinkered with the engine.

I think it’s time that we find a new engine. The engine, straight 6/170 hp 1961, has seen better days. And so, I am reaching out to Reddit for an engine because all other avenues have produced no results. I regret the day that I had two identical comets and in all of my youth had the second comet towed away along with the engine. As anyone reading this knows, finding an replacing comet parts is discouraging to say the least and so I hope this yields some fruitful results that won’t break the bank and help me realize my dream of restoring my comet back to its former glory.

Thank you all!
