This 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente hardtop coupe is powered by a replacement 260ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission and is finished in bronze over tan and brown upholstery. Equipment includes a black vinyl roof, wheel covers, whitewall tires, power steering, power-assisted drum brakes, front bucket seats, a push-button AM/FM radio, and woodgrain interior trim.
The seating surfaces are upholstered in tan vinyl with brown cloth inserts. Woodgrain trim accents the dashboard and door panels, and further details include a center console, a column-mounted shifter, a heater/defroster, and vent windows. A push-button AM/FM radio is linked to speakers housed in the rear parcel shelf. Wear is noted on the woodgrain dashboard trim.
The replacement 260ci V8 was installed under previous ownership and is said to date from 1963. It is fitted with a two-barrel carburetor and a blue air-cleaner assembly and valve covers. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
