Repairing a 1968 Mercury Comet at AMR Automotive

This 1968 Mercury Comet came to AMR Automotive with several issues needing attention, including soft brakes.

Brake repairs

The work included adding a vacuum pump and replacing worn brake hoses. The master cylinder had leaking, deteriorated seals and was replaced with a new unit.

Fuel system and rear shocks

A new mechanical fuel pump was installed, with a backup electric pump added. The rear shocks were replaced with air shocks.

Parts for the project were sourced from Mopac Auto Supply. This was a combination of repairs and upgrades for a classic vehicle rather than a single routine maintenance item.

If your classic car has brake, fuel-system or suspension concerns, call AMR Automotive at 403-243-2483 or request an appointment in southeast Calgary to discuss the work needed.
