RealRides of WNY - 1966 Mercury Comet Cyclone

IRVING, N.Y.

When the brand was founded in 1939, it was always more or less an upscale Ford. Some years there was more differentation then others. When this 1966 Mercury Comet Cyclone was new, there was still enough uniqueness (IMO) to persuade one from choosing it over the similar Ford Fairlane GT/GTA. Ten years down the road faced with the choice between Ford's Torino and the Merc Montego? Not so much. Again, IMO.

Saw this one back in October 2020 at a cruise night at the Big Indian Smoke Shop.
