1964 Mercury Comet Caliente HardTop Coupe

    The early 1964 Comets were factory built and sent out for modifications. Competition was fierce as the other manufacturers were involved as well. Big engines and weight saving seemed to be the key. Racers also discovered that moving the weight further back in the car had its advantages as well.

    Dealerships around the country realized that by sponsoring Drag Racing, they got great visibility. Henderson Lincoln Mercury (Springfield, Pennsylvania), like a lot of other dealers, got the message loud and clear. Ford and Mercury had a prestigious group of drivers in their stable in the early 1960s. Among them were Don Nicholson, Ed Schartman, Jack Chrisman, and the team of Kenz and Leslie. But, it was these early cars that put Mercury on the map.

    Drag Racing historians will remember the picture of a Supercharged Comet driven by Jack Chrisman. While other drivers were fooling around with injectors, Jack stuffed a supercharger on his SOHC and went match racing. These early Comets are some of the most significant cars in the early years of A/FX racing.

    This example is one of only 10 Original Factory Comets.
