Nothing earthshaking here, but a neat little story. My oldest brother had a Mercury Comet. Can't remember the year, just that it was copper-red with white leather and a landau top. Beautiful ride.

I don’t know if Jay Leno would want her car, but I think she could get a pretty penny for it.
I amazed at the car with the 3 millions miles, just amazed.

223K on mine. The more work I do on it, as opposed to my dealer, the better it runs...

I have 1,367,000 miles on my 65 Chevy PU but it is on it’s 6th engine and upgraded to a late 350 and a 700R4 auto trans.
I’ll keep it and drive it until they bury me!

I owned a light blue 65 Comet I bought from a family member. I wish I would have had the time to put a 289 in it. I ended up selling it to someone who wanted to restore it. One buddy in high school had a 65 and dropped a 351 in it LOL. The 65's were a wider body and had the headlights like the Fairlanes. Two on each side stacked.
I had a 66 Fairlane wagon when I was 16. That was the first car I had too drive on the road. The first car I just too drove around in the field at about 12 years old was an old 55 Plymouth Belvedere wagon dad let me have. I still have the center cap of a ship off the steering wheel LOL.
