In front of it an early 1960s Comet, on the right a late 1950s Lincoln Continental and a 1950 Pontiac

The subject car looks more like a Mercury from here.
1965?

Yeah, now that I look at it, it does look more like a mid-1960's full-size Mercury.

Did Mercury ever make a "police package" vehicle? Would this have been a California Highway Patrol car?

That's not a Comet, it's a 1960 Chrysler.

A few police departments bought Mercury's for a short while during the 1960's. It wouldn't surprise me if California was one of them since they bought some Oldsmobiles as well.

I should've known all along this was a Mercury. Here's another '66 that I added to this site myself:

And another shot of it here:

So it is. I must have looked too quickly at it, this happens sometimes.

Indeed, from 1958 until the early 80s. The last major department to use a Mercury was the Missouri State Highway Patrol in 1981, and finding examples built after that is quite tricky. Though I believe the police package was available for a few more years afterwards, possibly for as long as the full size Mercury was built in St. Louis.

In answer to your other question; the California Highway Patrol used a Mercury in one year, and only one year: 1970. So where ever this Montery came from, it was not a CHP car.
