Mercury : Comet Custom Red and Silver 1963 Mercurey Comet 5.0

Hello Bidders.  Your looking at a beautiful  1963 Mercurey Comet.  I bought the car about 3 years ago from the original owner's son in law.  i was at his house buying another car and i saw this car sitting in his garage under a pile of ply wood. i asked him if he wanted to sell it he said sure so i bought the car and i took it back to my shop and we started to restore the car. the first thing we did was strip out all the suspension we took suspension out of a 1973 maverick and put it in the comet. we put front willwood disk brakes and rear drum brakes. the back ar the original maverick leaf springs and the original mavrick front springs. all the chrome and glass on the car is all original and never has been changed to replaced. I painted the car caracs red and ford silver. For the wheels and tires we put american racing 18X10 wheels in the back and 17X8 in the front. For the motor I used a ford 5.0 block out of a 1991 ford F150 we bought the block stripped it all down and re-built the motor from the oil pan all the way to the carburator. the motor has the serpentine pulley's on it with a holley 750 cfm carb and an edelbrock polished high rise intake. the transmission is a stock automatic with a mild shift kit and a B&M quick shift shifter. On the interior it has custom bucket seats that were re-done to match the back seat along with the door panels and the head liner and carpet. it has the original guage closter with 3 auto meter guages mounted on top of the dash for better accuracy. the car is rust free. when we first stripped the car there was no rust on the car and 2 years later there is still no rust. the car originated out of North Carolina and has been in Florida since 1983. it has a Flowmaster 30 series exhaust for a nice hot rod sound.
