I'm offering at auction my 1967 Comet Voyager 4 door wagon. The Comet wagon has been stored outside at a storage facility for the past 2 years. I purchased a new battery and Solenoid for it and started the car on the first try. It idles perfectly.  The Comet wagon is a factory C code 289 auto 8" rear end.I purchased the car off of eBay in 2007. It has been upgraded with a Offenhauser manifold and Holley 600cfm carb. This is a column shift C4 automatic. Getting this car ready for an extended trip is the responsibility of the new owner. The front end components are worn and should be looked at before taking it on any long trips.


 The car has a complete interior. The upholstery is torn on the front bench and back seat. The cargo area needs a replacement interior side cover.

The car's body is overall pretty straight but the paint is poor and not an original Ford color. The front fenders  have been replaced.  The wagon has some rust on the lower section of the tailgate and the front floors. The fiberglass Cyclone hood looks good on this car. I do not have the original steel hood and the hood springs have been removed. All of the glass is perfect in the car as is the dash top. The radio is missing having been replaced with a aftermarket stereo. 

 I purchased a set of tires in 2010 and they have fewer than 500 miles on them. The drum brakes front and rear, radiator, rear axle bearings, hood prop rod, side view mirrors were all replaced with new parts in 2010. The rear window and rear dual action door which folds down like a tailgate and opens out like a regular door were rewired and repaired and now work properly. The wheels and wheel covers are from a Lincoln and go with the car.

If you are a California bidder be advised that there is a total of $464 owed to the DMV before the Comet can be registered in CA. There is no smog necessary.


The Hagerty valuation tool has the Comet Voyager wagon in #4 condition which is Fair at $16,900. A picture of the valuation chart is included. 

I reserve the right to end the auction early because the car is for sale locally.  Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I can help with loading.

A deposit to my PayPal account in the amount of $500 is required within 2 days of the close of the auction. Full payment in cash or certified funds is required within 7 days of the close of the auction. The car will not move until funds have cleared my bank. Please contact me in order to arrange to see the wagon. The car is currently located at my storage facility so I need some advance warning to arrange to see it. 


Another ebayer selling his Fairlane said this " This car is being sold as is where is with no warranty implied.  It is also for sale/trade locally, I reserve the right to end auction early.  CASH only please!  I do not need any help selling this car.  If you feel the car is an easy sell, feel free to buy it from me and sell it for what you think it is worth.  And finally, I know this car has flaws, dents, dings, rips, scratches, leaks peeling paint, rust and rot, that is why the car is being sold for under $2000..."


Thanks for viewing this auction and good luck bidding.

The $500 deposit to my PayPal account by the winning bidder is non-refundable. Your placing a bid is a contract to purchase the vehicle not to hold it until you decide to purchase it so please ask any and all of your questions prior to the close of the auction. Thanks.

Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue

Fri, Dec 20 2019

Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday

Mon, 04 Oct 2010

Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.

Ford recalls 382k vehicles across six campaigns

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Ford needs to repair a total of 381,633 vehicles in North America across six newly announced campaigns, including five safety recalls and one compliance recall. By far the largest of these campaigns covers the 342,271 examples of the 1998-2003 Windstar to double check an earlier recall repair. Among these, 283,413 are in the US and 58,858 are in Canada. The combination of corrosion and stress can cause cracks in the rear axle and eventually lead to the part to snap completely. The company reports a small number of accidents might be connected to this, but there are no injuries. The minivans were recalled for this issue back in 2010, and it was investigated by NHTSA. According to Ford's latest announcement, the reinforcement brackets on some of these models might not have been installed correctly. This time, dealers will perform an inspection. Minivans with incorrectly installed brackets will get a new rear axle. The rest of the owners will be offered a deal to replace the part at a reduced cost. The next largest campaign covers 36,857 examples of the 2015 F-150 to fix a problem with the adaptive cruise control. Specifically, there are 33,481 affected trucks in the US, and 3,376 in Canada. According to Ford, "when passing a large, highly reflective truck" the radar in the system can misidentify a semi as being in the same lane as the pickup. The collision warning system would then activate, slowing the F-150. There's one report of an accident with this happening but no injuries. The fix is simply an update to the adaptive cruise control module software. Ford also has a recall for 1,477 examples of its 2016 F-53 and F-59 stripped chassis models, and they're all located in the US. A manufacturing issue might allow the trucks to shift into reverse without the driver first applying the brakes. There are no reports of any accidents from this, though. To repair the problem, the models get a new transmission shift control bracket and an adjustment to the shift cable. The Blue Oval's safety compliance recall covers 708 examples of the 2016 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, including 658 of them in the US, 28 in Canada, and 22 in Mexico. On these models, a manufacturing problem with the fuel tank could allow it to crack in a crash, which isn't allowed under federal rules. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires. The fix will be a new fuel tank for all of them. The company is also repairing 251 units of the 2015 Taurus and Lincoln MKS, plus the 2016 Explorer.
