You sure don't see too many of these every day, especially not one in this condition. This 1972 Mercury Comet GT really is something special, a factory-correct GT with plenty of go-fast features that make this Comet shoot across the highway like no other. That's because under the Ram-Air hood of this beast lies one of the best-sounding 302 C.I. V8s we've heard in quite some time here at Coyote Classics, complete with aluminum heads and a 4-barrel carburetor punching out over 300hp. Behind that powerful 302 V8 lies a factory 3-speed manual transmission, good for plenty of quick shifting and wide smiles behind the wheel. The exterior is covered in a deep gloss black paint, reflecting with a mirror-like finish in the sun and complimenting those black & silver "COMET GT" stripes and decals wonderfully. It covers both a laser-straight body and rock-solid floors, frame, trunk and jambs for a show-quality build that's hard to beat! Opening this Comet's twin doors reveals a gorgeous black vinyl interior, complete with comfy patterned bucket seats and additional woodgrain door trim for a splash of luxury flair! Options on this rare Comet include a full Marti Report, a Ram-Air hood intake, aluminum heads, an aluminum radiator, a stunningly-detailed engine bay, heater + defroster, factory gauges, an original AM pushbutton radio, an aftermarket tachometer, under-dash aux. gauges, "Dual Sport" mirrors, a remote driver's mirror, and a seriously-menacing cut off dual exhaust system. The car rides on a set of shiny 5-spoke 15" chrome wheels over B.F. Goodrich RWL tires for a factory-fresh, period-correct appearance that's sure to turn heads! With the combination of a built 302 V8, a manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, and a small frame, this '72 Comet GT is seriously quick. Believe us, it can't wait to light up its rear tires! Whenever you're behind the wheel, you're in for a good time. If you're in the market for a classic that's extremely uncommon, fast, and brings plenty of style to the table, then this 1972 Mercury Comet GT is exactly what you're looking for. Don't let this one get away!
