This 1967 Mercury Comet 202 Sedan is one of 22 R-Code Comet 202 examples built in 1967. It is one of 6 known to exist today. It is an original and unrestored example with less than 2,000 miles on the odometer.
The Ford 427 cubic-inch engine enjoyed early success on the nation's drag strips and this would continue through the mid-1960s as the faster Super Stock racers began their transformation into radical factory experimental machines. Sock and Super Stock remained ripe for the picking, and Ford in 1967 delivered a new wave of cars using the 427 Medium Riser V-8.
Mercury retained their reputation with their own R-Code Comets, employing the same 427/425 HP big block fitted with a high rise aluminum intake mounting dual Holley 4-barrels. There were 60 R-Code Comets built in 1967 and just 22 used the 2-door 2020 Sedan body.
This example was sold new to playboy sportsman Jack Reynolds, heir to the Reynolds Tobacco fortune and a dedicated Ford enthusiast. It has its original Onyx Black Super Diamond Lustre Enamel paint, Firestone Wide Oval Super Sport tires, painted steelies with hub caps, and a 4-speed. In the front are disc brakes. The car is also the only R-Code built with an AM/FM radio, an interesting feature considering there is no external antenna. Instead, it is mounted under the hood to keep it out of sight.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2013
