I always wanted a 65-67 Galaxie growing up and ended up purchasing this one in 2011 in Oregon, spent a couple weeks tuning it up and then made a big road trip and drove it back across the country to Pennsylvania. The vehicle is in very nice shape. It has not been restored or messed around with that much and most of the stuff on it is original. The coolest thing for me is just how nice the undercarraige of the car is. As far as I'm concerned, the car, although not perfect, has character. As an owner, other than keeping it tuned up in and in working order, I like it the way that it is. But.... for the right somebody else out there, this car is a perfect candidate for a top to bottom restoration. I've provided many detailed pictures.
Now I'll tell you what is wrong with the car that I know of. First of all, the engine leaks oil out of the manifold. I add about a half quart or more to top it off every time that I fill up the tank with gas. I am not a "mechanic", but do know a little about how to work on a car, and my best diagnosis is that there are broken studs in the manifold. The car drives fine and the engine runs well, so for the past summer driving it I let it go. Although this may not be a big problem to fix for somebody that works on cars constantly, it would be a project for the non mechanic (me) to fix that up. The thought of fixing it jumped through my mind, but if I'm going to sell it, I'll leave that up to the next person.
On the driver's side fender there is a spot touched up with white paint right behind the tire. The trunk was completely repainted. Both of these things were there before I bought the car. A teenage girl bumped into my car last year in a parking lot, while the car was parked. The chrome on the driver's side taillight was bent and the paint and letters were scratched. It was repaired professionally at a body shop in Buffalo New York. The Chrome was replaced with an older part and the letters (except for the "G") were replaced with New Old Stock original galaxie letters (the rubber is black and perfect), the scratch on the body was fixed and painted. This was not a major collision and not something that would cause major damage to the car, was just a minor cosmetic thing.
I replaced the old carburetor with a new Edelbrock. I still have the old one, but it needs to be rebuilt. Also have the original air filter. With the passing gear stepdown rod, I couldn't get the linkage right with the new carburetor (didn't put that much effort into it), so I just tied it up with a bungy. I also replaced the belts, brakes, drums, master cylinder, coil and distributer, a few other small things.
This is a pretty great car. Perfect for a person that would want to restore a classic automobile. Look at the photos and let me know about any questions that you have.

2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of
Tue, 17 Dec 2013One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.
