    OK, let me see some '60-'63 Galaxies. I have had a bunch but I need a fix. Let's see 'em all, 2-doors, 4-doors and longroofs!

    I'm liking this '63, but it needs different wheels and tires. Maybe chrome steelies or Radirs with wide whites.

    I constanly flip flop between my favorite being a fast back or a box top. Its cool to have two choices of one your favorite cars.

    I like both too. Two different attitudes.

    Some of the box tops make really cool cruisers and the fastbacks can make some mean looking 60's style street racers, esp with some of the hot ford FE motors, and the tear drop hoods.

    The '60-'64 Galaxies will always be my favorites.

    WOW !!!!! I forgot that my car looked like that with the scallops, it wasn't like that very long, then it went to flames and scallops, then candy suede and more flames. to see what it looks like today is is in custom rodder under the austin coverage. candy red ,new fatlucky's interior and white scallops. I think that photo in red with white top was taken at the last run in ark city right after I bought it from mcphail. Sooooo ..... many paint changes on that car! I think I will keep the one on it now tho. jeff myers

    Yeah Jeff I always liked your car...I got to see it in person at the Winfield show,it is simply amazing...love the color scheme! You may remember me I was the kid hangin' around Kraig Koerner, and I used to be the kid who hung out at Dennis' shop all the time when it was in Wellington.

    more for you Kirk, it's a really nice car, needs lowering and maybe a Cal Custom inner trim ring for the wheels and it'll be a knock out (it already is)

    Had never seen a Starliner in person before and we were up a local cruise night a few weeks ago and I saw 3! One of my favorite Ford's.

    Here's mine. It's a 60 Edsel 2 door hardtop. Pretty much a Ford Galaxie Starliner with freaky taillights and grille. It's gonna get driven into the shop and started on in the near future.

    Reed that car rules... that rear 3/4 view is the money shot.

    Brush ha yeah mine doesnt really fit this year bracket either... as its a six four...

    I just went through the motor for the last time... also got new quarters for it. Doesnt look like it needs them in the pic but someone did some patchwork that shouldnt have... It wouldve been better if they had left it alone. I should be able to finally finish this car by the end of the summer.

    heres some pics im sure everyones seen...

    Man, that sits killer! I'm a '64 fan too. My first car was a '64 500xl convertible.

    I've had two '64s

    That Edsel is, honestly, one of the coolest cars on the board. Holy crap.

    This is a '64 obviously.

    Man, I'd really like to get my hands on a '63 two door post and give it the super stock treatment. I dig them box top Galaxies.

    There is one car that really sticks out in my mind and has for years...
    It's a black 61' Starliner that was featured in American Rodder years back and is just too sweet. Ironically, I think the guy was from Morris, IL
    (where the Pile-up is held) Anyone remember this car? Or have any pics
    to post? I think the guy even had a 406 / 4 speed in it...
