My dad first bought this car in 1964. It is a 64 galaxie 500 with the 390 FE big block, three speed cruisomatic. It has around 87,000 miles on it and that number keeps getting higher because i drive it. im proud of that fact. if you own a hot car you gotta drive it. this is what it looked like

I drove that for a while, but there was always that galaxie lurking in our drive way. my dad passed away when i was younger and the car sat unused and dripping fluids. i didnt want it to sit anymore so i took it upon myself to update it.

i started out by driving it, getting the motor running reliably, or at least as reliable as possible. after a few hundred miles things started to show their age. the suspension is still untouched, but the motor has been focused on the most.

I put in a new holley fuel pump, msd billet distributor, demon carb, but i only went with a 625 because i want to save gas. its not a quick car by any means because of the size and weight. i swapped out the old generator for an alternator. I also added these nice american racing torque thrust IIs. other than that i havent changed it much. I take it to the goodguys car shows in pleasanton alot.

The 'Stang is a beaut, but I love the old iron and your Galaxie convertible is a sweet classic. Take care of it, too, and treat it like an investment. Please check out the Fireball some time if you get a chance!
