somebody stuck the cyclone on it.

 

thank you much

i thought so ,it is a nice car has a 302,buckets and was way cheap and it runs. again thanks

 

Sounds like a comet gt... Pictures would be great..

 

Cyclone emblems might be worth something to someone. Just a thought if you decide to take them off.

 

There was such a thing in the 60's but I believe in 69 or 70 they had a mercury cyclone which used the larger body similar to the torino formal hardtop. I have a hot wheel of a 70 mercury cyclone.

 

But a 71-72 Comet Cyclone with the standard Boss 351 and 4 speed would have been pretty sweet if they'd made it. Probably one of the fastest Mercs of the 60s & 70s (as far as factory production for retail sales goes).

The Mercury Cyclone was produced from 1964 to 1972, beginning as an option for the 1964 Mercury Comet, and continuing as a Mercury Comet Cyclone for the next three years. From 1968, the name Cyclone was applied to the Mercury Montego.

 

I meant a Maverick based Comet Cyclone...just fantisizing!
