My new project turd

Awesome find, I love the old galaxie's. How much did you get it for?

Badass! Finding something like that in a field and picking it up are few and far between nowadays to me. How are the floor pans?

Interesting trailer floor, we use that stuff at work on platforms but it's just for foot traffic.

Love it. How much did you pay for it, if you don't mind me asking?

That is bad ass sir! Reminds me of my Fairlane, it sat for almost 30 uears before I pulled it out of a field and got it back on the road.

I dig it. Man, it's going to need a lot of body work.

I'm going to be looking for someone to do the upholstery. I want it to look somewhat old school, but with a modern twist.


I found an XL car with bucket seats and the center console
Recommendations?

Trying to find parts for this thing is fun. 65 was the only year it looked this way. 66 they changed it.

Nice looking car! Yep.. 65' was a "Bastard" year for the big Ford and the Fairlane.. I passed my drivers test using a 66 Galaxie wagon..

65 galaxie I found in a field that sat for 30 some odd years. Structurally pretty sound. It was a 289 car but someone had dropped a 69 351 in it at some point. I pulled the motor and trans and put in a 347 and a world class T5. I've gone thru all the suspension, put discs on the front.

Today it moved under its own power for the first time since the 70's.


The day I bought it.





Pulling it apart







Today when I pulled it out of the shop









And ya I know, it looks slow
