1964 Mercury Comet Caliente

AMT 1/25

The Mercury Comet is an automobile that was produced by Mercury
from 1962–1969 and 1971–1977 — variously as either a compact or an
intermediate car. For 1960 and 1961, Comet was its own brand sold by
Lincoln-Mercury "Comet".

The compact Comet shared a naming convention associated with the ongoing Space Race of the early 1960s with the Mercury Meteor, which was introduced as the base-trim full-size Mercury sedan.

The Comet was initially based on the compact Ford Falcon, then on the intermediate Ford Fairlane, and finally on the compact Ford Maverick. Early Comets received better-grade interior trim than concurrent Falcons, and a slightly longer wheelbase. 

Second generation (1964–1965)

The 1964 Comet was redesigned with a much more square shape, though it
was still built on the same unibody as the 1963 model. Its basic lines
were shared with the new Falcon, but the front grille used styling
similar to that of the Lincoln Continental. Along with the redesign, the model designations were changed. The performance version was known as the Cyclone, replacing the previous S-22. Then in descending order of trim levels were the Caliente, 404, and 202, replacing the previous Custom
and base models. The two-door station wagon bodystyle was discontinued.
The top-of-the-line station wagon continued to be known as the Villager.
The 144 inline-six engine was dropped, leaving the 170 as the base
engine. The 260 V8 was available at the beginning of the production run,
with the new 289 being available mid-year. Due to the success of the
full-sized Ford and Mercury "fastback" roofline introduced in mid-1963,
the Falcon and Comet two-door hardtops got a similar roofline with
sharper corners
