Gramma & Her '64 Comet!

The lady in the few minute vid is 89, and her original '64 Mercury Comet still runs like a top, with nearly 540,000 miles on the odo...she is a pizzer!

My ol'man had a '64 powder blue Comet vert that I got to drive on rare occasions. It never ran as well as hers does.

There is a link in the paragraph below the vid that has an updated vid showing her now at 91, and the car is pushing 600k miles!


I suspect we will not see many current model Xs on the road in 2050...
They don't make them like they used to, car or Gramma, imo.
