If The 1968 to 1972 Mercury Comet Cyclone Could Talk - Part 2 of 2 - History of the Mercury Cyclone!

[@markcavaluzzi3920]

I bought my 1970 Mercury Cyclone GT in 1979. Still have it to this day in 2024. Love that car.

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

That is SO cool! Wish we still had the cars we bought back in the day! We'd need a very big garage though! Thanks for watching!

1970 - 1971 Cyclone with hidden headlights - one of the best looking front ends of all time!

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

We totally agree! A beautiful and unique design. Thanks for watching and for the great comment!

I looked to buy a 71 Cyclone with the 351C 4V and 4 speed. It was the most gorgeous, tire-shredding machine! What a thrill to just test drive! My money wasn't right @ the time, but it'll always be one of my dream cars

[@kenheisler759]

I had a 1970 cyclone gt 351-4v. I loved that car.

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

It's never too late to have one again! Thanks for watching and hope you find lots more to love here!

Great info on Montego GT.

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

Thank you so much Jamey! Glad you found it informative and enjoyed the feature!

[@toastybuddy8743]

Quick question, as you seem very knowledgeable; is there a 60's era 2 door hardtop mercury chassis that will house a big six (ford 240/300)? i know the 240 was issued in ford's car offerings of the time and i was wondering about unibody design and the crossover if any.

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

Well, that question requires some thought and a much longer answer. Please email Tom at [e-mail] and I'm happy to give you my thoughts and information. Thanks so much for watching and welcome to the ITCCT family!

With the gigantic speaker it doesn't need to talk

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

LOL - right! Thanks Louis!

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT GT STRIPES ARE BUT WHAT ARE RALLY STRIPES? NEVER HEARD OF A CYCLONE RALLY. PLAIN CYCLONE DIDN'T HAVE THE GT STRIPES.

[@IfThisCarCouldTalk]

By the late 1960's, stripes on muscle car were very popular and some strips were available on non-muscle cars. In the case of the Montego/Cyclone some Cyclone models got the lower rocker panel stripe and it was offered on other non-Cyclone models as an option and is sometimes referred to as a Rally Stripe. Thanks for watching George! Great question too!

[@georgecooke9010]

@@IfThisCarCouldTalk THAT LOWER STRIPE HAD A SPACE FOR THE GT EMBLEM HENCE "GT" STRIPE. MY 66 CYCLONE GT CONVERTABLE HAD THEM AS WELL AS MY 67 MUSTANG GT. RALLY IS USUALLY A GM REFERENCE WHILE "GT", "C", AND "LASER" STRIPES ARE TYPICALLY FORD. THERE WAS A 79 UP CAPRI RS MODEL BUT I9 DON'T RECALL ANY STRIPE KIT ASSOCIATED WITH THAT RS MODEL. I COULD BE WRONG.

[@georgecooke9010]

1964 1/2 TO 66 MUSTANGS HAD A RALLY PACK OPTION THAT WERE GUAGES MOUNTED ON THE STEERING COLUMN.

[@rickyarmstrong9267]

That was when you could buy a real car and get what you paid for they are worth the money most all brands now are junk not worth the price

The 1970 Spoiler 2 is fake. It never made it past being a clay mock up.
