She is a Mahaw, NJ built Galaxie 500 2Dr Hardtop with a vinyl roof. She was built May 26, 1967, and ordered by Tasca Ford here in RI (still in business today). 289 Windsor Ford with 2bbl carb. All original condition, except for frame stiffeners which were added by Tasca in 1969. (I guess the unibody construction tended to buckle a little bit). I purchased from a friend's father (original owner). Car was a daily driver until 1984 when she was put away. She was always garaged and rarely driven in the rain. Started right up when I purchased her back in August of 2003. So far I have replaced the water pump, brakes, universals, and am in process of repainting valve covers, exhaust manifolds, Air Filter Housing and Snorkel. Only other thing she now needs is a new radiator (old one was leaking). Also rebuilt the carb. |
