Bowtie is buying a blue oval

Hey Mike, you might be on something there.......I JUST CAN'T FIGURE WHAT .

 

i really dont get this ford vs chevy thing. they both made great cars.
I love'em all really.

This said, the Nova is one of my favorite cars period, but this 500 would make a sweet custom fosho!
i would keep both.

 

That's how it starts. First you buy one just to turn, then you end up fixing a bunch of stuff, then you start thinking about fixing it up a little more. Then one day you look around and wonder where the hell did all these friggin Fords come from?
Sell it quick, and get started on the Nova!

 

bttt......the blue oval is for sale . Repeat ....for sale.
pm me if interested.

 

bttt

 

HAHAHA went to buy a chebby and came home with a real car. .02
I've wanted a Nova, like a 66/67 to put the driveline outta my Jag in.
Kinda a reverse swap. Make it a corner carver. Too much dough for the ruination though.

 

HAHAHAHA.....Worked on the FORD today , damn .....its going to take alot of beer. Going to have it at the drags in August (WITH MY GOODWRENCH SHIRT ON) It will have a 4-sale sign on it.

Sure sounds like you are enjoying the galaxie HAHAHWHAHA

 

I love it like an adopted child , but not as much as i love me beer.

The Galaxie is on the for sale board.

Well everybody , it happened . The Galaxie is not for sale any longer. put a bad ass 302 in it & been doing other work to it . Going to finish it up then off the thing. Will post some pics on the progress soon.

What does the 302 consist of ? Year , build work etc , reason I ask is because a lot people say a 302 won't pull a galaxie , but I think it would be fine for a nice cruiser

 

302 will do just fine.
some came with a 289 factory, and it did the trick.

 

^ exactly , I have a 289 in mine , pretty tired ,but it cruises fine . Hard to do drive bys with though , I have thought about a 351 a few times , but I think a rebuilt 302 in my 64 would give me enough power to be happy

L

 

Yeah, i think this 302 will do the trick . It was a 289 stock & cruised fine.
The 302 has heads, inside work , you know .....normal crap.

 

Don't be ashamed. a car is a car...make it what you want

my grandfather and father are chevy guys and i have a ford. they support my hotrod habit

 

ME ASHAMED ???? I'll just change my name, get plastic surgery & move .
HEY , I LIKE EM ALL , NOTHING BETTER THEN REAL STEEL.

 

could be worse,... it could be a chrysler product

 

Yep.....MY OLE LADY HELPED ME PULL THE 289 OUT OF IT. NOW THAT IS THE MOST FUN YOU CAN HAVE WITH YOUR PANTS ON. DON'T GET NO GOODER.

More updates on the Galaxie. Had to put the 289 oil pan & exhaust manifolds on the 302 . This is a '64 (289)...'79 (302) out of a 5.0 mustang. Also had to use the old motor mounts. I'll try to keep you FORD guys updated with pictures to come also.

Finally a real ride..haha.. Nice to see no one escapes the ford addiction

 

Look forward to seeing some pics !

yeah the chevy,s works and the bottom is still there

 

Wow BB, I thought you were a hardcore chebby guy, but seeing the Ford as your avatar threw me for a loop, and when you said you weren't selling it I laughed. Good for you! What made you change your mind? It is good that you have come into the light, Grasshopper.

 

I think its the meds.
ITS A 2-DOOR HARDTOP . (enough said)

 

BB,
As a Old Truck/Car Lover with a love of 53-56 F100's and 60-64 Fullsize Fords I say thanks for saving the car. Keep us posted. If I can do anything to help let me know. There is a old yard about 40 miles south of me here, South of Nashville, where the guy favors older Fords. Thanks again

 

Too bad you're not a little closer, I have three '63-'64 390's out in the shop, with manifolds, mounts, pulleys, everything to get you to FE heaven, easy and reasonable. If you got to play with a good 427 for a while, you'd be spoiled for life- the sound alone would do it. Admit it now, don't you love it when you close the door, and it sounds like a bank vault, not that tinny "Chebbie Clunk/Rattle"? "Quality is Job 1"- not "planned obsolescence"

 

Iam tearing up. My ole man is shittin his pants & my grandpa is turning over in his grave.
