    60 COMET LOW MILES * LOW RESERVE *VERY NICE *FIRST YEAR

    The 1960 Comet offered here is in very good condition. It is a very rare automobile with low miles. It has been a wonderful pleasure to own and drive. It is one of the biggest attention 'getters' I have ever seen. It will compliment a serious collector or a first time classic car buyer. Have fun as you bid on this one.

    Mercury never went in for wild tail fins like most of Detroit. Well, not until the Comet with its canted elliptical tail. The original Comet was to carry the Edsel badge. With the demise of Edsel, Mercury needed a car to compete with the ever popular Ford Falcon Futura. America was ready for a sporty, compact personal car. And compete it did, with the somewhat radical fins... it was a hit.

    The first year Comet was not an Edsel. It was not a Mercury. It was just a Comet. It was to compete with Ford's Falcon and compete it did. It was bigger, plusher and had an easier ride. It handled better and had such a snazzy look. Ford claimed it had a BIG CAR RIDE, with small car handling.

    When was the last time you saw one of these cars cruising the streets of your city, especially in this condition? Have you ever seen one? They are a great running and handling automobile. Talk about 'heads turning , this one is so bright and shiny it draws more attention than almost any of the muscle cars. The interior looks almost like new. It is flashy, sporty and very comfortable. You just cannot ask for a smoother or more comfortable ride.

    When sitting in the drivers seat you will be surrounded with a miniature Edsel dash. It is very inviting and well designed.T he dashboard knobs are actually Edsel's. You will enjoy looking at the many pictures of the interior. Please note that it is in spectacular condition.

    Langworth listed the Comet “collectable” as far back as 1987. This car will compliment anyone’s collection. I included a promo board.

    This car is almost 50 years old with only 47,00 miles on the odometer. We make no mileage claim. It is really very nice, even up close. It is a drive anywhere car. Everything works. Even the original radio and horn work. When was the last time you pulled a manual choke? It is still there along with the original Holly carburetor. It roars into action; well, not really, I better leave the roar part out, but it starts quickly, runs and drives just about like new.

    The engine and engine compartment are neat and clean. It really is something to show off. The valve cover and ORIGINAL air cleaner are all dressed up in their Sunday best.......Brilliant yellow. The original battery tray is even in excellent condition. The entire car has been well cared for and protected from abuse. Classic cars are supposed to be fun. This one is a lot of fun. The six cylinder engine is smooth, quiet and very economical.

    MARKS CORNER
    I have driven this car for over 100 miles. Julie just loves it. Every time I bring it home she just raves about it. This one sure gets the looks. It runs and drives great. I had never seen a 1960 Comet before. It has been a lot of fun for me and my family.

    Our reserves are always lower than current market value. We take pride in our ability to find and sell vehicles at reasonable prices.

    We strive to offer quality vehicles. Our low reserves reflect years of providing value to our customers. Our buyers are always searching for classic vehicles that represent the best possible value. BEFORE BIDDING PLEASE READ ABOUT US AND OUR POLICIES.

    Oftentimes I'm asked about the roadworthiness of a vehicle. It is difficult to give an answer. EVERYONE LOOKS AT VEHICLES THROUGH DIFFERENT EYES. Even experienced buyers do not see things you might see. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO LOOK BEFORE YOU BID. Classic vehicles are today’s best investments in my opinion.

    Keep in mind these vehicles need attention, they need to be tweaked and time needs to be spent in order to know their strengths and weaknesses. My suggestion is to get familiar with your classic car. You purchased an old vehicle to experience motoring FROM THAT ERA. These classics are much different than today’s modern vehicles. Wear and tear is a part of all used vehicles. Age, road conditions, maintenance and pride of previous owners are all part of a vehicles condition. We are experienced buyers and do what we can to make your purchase a pleasant experience. All vehicles are sold where is as is .

    We are a bonded, licensed Michigan dealer and have been in business for twenty years. We are not as “showy” as some because we want to sell QUALITY vehicles at COMPETITIVE prices. We are a father and son owned business and in for the long road. LIVE LONG AND HAVE FUN BIDDING .

    We have provided as much information as we can to assist bidders. However, it is the responsibility of you as a buyer to check out the vehicle before bidding. You do not have the right to change your mind after the bidding has ended If you have questions or doubts or are unable to get funded please do not bid. Remember, if you win this auction, you won the vehicle.

    Thank you for looking at our auctions. Many of you know us because of all the years we have been buying classic cars. Thank you for your support. Mark and Wayne and Jeannie

      About Us:It all started in 1949 when my dad bought a new Torpedo back Chevrolet. The option he was most proud of was an umbrella holder. What a CAR!! I remember Dad taking me to car show rooms and places like the Ford plant to look at cars. I was only eleven years old in 1949 but cars became my passion. Now my son shares my passion for cars and trucks, as does his son.
