Projects SOHC Galaxie frame rolls

Count me in.

Went for my first drive today. I would've went to your house Eric but just doing this video I used up 5 Gallons of fuel.

Eric I cant wait for you to get your Galaxie finished.

 

I'm primarily a Chevy guy, but I like the rest, too. I absolutely love your Merc! The color, wheels/tires, stance, and especially the engine.

That car is one of my favorites on this site. When I watched the video, I had no sound. I need to troubleshoot the reason because I'm dying to hear it.

 

You Have to get your sound fixed. You should hear it on the dyno. Its with my other You Tube videos. I need to make it my Ring Tone

 

Ken I like the ring tone idea, pretty cool.

Now that you have finished 2 Comets, one with a Cammer, and my shit is still on my rotissere, I am feeling the pressure. I need to call Earl, and light a fire under his ass!

Hope some good progress is near, as I finished up a Bronco that was hogging up some shop space!
Eric

 

Flat, get that sound fixed, and enjoy!

 

I got the sound fixed, and it sounds AWESOME! Man, is that car beautiful.

If I were to build the perfect Cammer Gasser, that is the exact one I would build. Great job!

 

Finding myself a little distracted lately. Cant seem to stay focused on Cammer projects.

 

Ken, don't let your wife see pics of your girl friend on here.....

 

Ken;I agree with Eric,don't let the wife see pictures of your new "Girl",it could get REAL EXPENSIVE!!!!! ROY.

 

Roy, I see a possible bkack mail scheme, in the works,
Do you want the 64, or the 65??
I take which ever you don't want!

Eric

 

Well, there are some distractions that are well worth it!!!

Ken, I'm thinking that is your wife and was trying to figure out how you got her to do that for you???

 

All I know is I wouldnt have any cool cars if I had a Girlfriend like that. I'm sure she would have the nice car and I would be walking to work.


Roy Congrats on the Photo shoot.


Thrush 544 Thats a damn cool Galaxie there, any pics. Did we cross paths out in PA. last year?

 

Even a die-hard Mopar guy like me can love a Cammer. No other sound like it,especially on nitro. I always thought that early Hemis(with a 6-71 and M/T rocker covers) were just about the coolest looking engines around. The SOHC is right up there in the visuals department.

Good luck with a very fine car!

 

Thrush, that is one nice looking Ford!
Eric

 

Thanks AL K, hope to make some real progress this year.
Eric

 

Did you steal my 'ol lady from the FE Forum She seems to distract the folks over there, too



Guess you could say I like Galaxies, too- the Evil Twin and the Croozer Twin

 

Wow

Theres no way I could handle 2 fine chassis like that. A guy is going to need some backup. We could share. The Galaxies are bitchin also.

 

I have her in my signature on several car and motorcycle forums, she can sidetrack even the grouchiest curmudgeons

 

All I know is you cant help but smile. Plus shes saving my life, It's been Zero or below here in Co. for a week now. All I see is the warm beach .

What do you run your Hardtop in. Any nostalgic events? Looks Damn nice


Eric you better look away, You know you cant handle twins

 

I knew I had seen that pair , of twins before!!!! I may be OLD,but I can still look!!!! ROY.

 

It's an original-paint 406-6V XL, so I'm being a little more careful with it these days. Currently has a 427-8V, C6 w/4000 converter, and 5.14's with a spool- jumps pretty good, especially around strokes in Chebbies
Trying to get back to work on my Falcooon for some serious fun

 

Thanks for the kind words guys, I've owned her for over 15 years now. My daughter and son (14 and 10 at the time) helped me rebuild the original 390 in her about 12 years ago. She's survived a divorce, single parenthood, 3 kids going through college.

Ken, about the only time I had her out last year is Flashback Friday at Beaver Springs PA. I drove her 3 hours there, raced all weekend and drove her home again. Unfortunately I had a rear axel seal that was leaking and causing a very unpredictable sticky brake. (not to mention a rookie who's a little slow on the tree) Plus she has 3:00 gears in the rear! All three of those lead to some unpredictable times and only one round win.
She's actually my cruiser as I'm building a 64 Custom 500 2drsd to race hopefully this summer. Unfortunately I was laid off last October so that has become a slow moving process. God willing I'll have her ready for Beaver Springs' Nostalgia Nationals in July.

I'll try to post some pics of her here soon.

 

Some great stuff here guys, thanks, I am sorry I sold my 66 Galaxie convert to my nephew in New Zealand and the car was written off by a drunk driver, I'd like another one again.

 

MeanGene427;that looks like it will be a SERIOUS 65 Falcon!!!! ROY

 

Roy, MeneGene's car looks real serious. That Galaxie looks great, as well.
Eric

 

How about this one Eric. Speedracer6 did have pics of a 64 Merc 4 door breezeway with a flip nose and a 427 SOHC. Cool Stuff. Looks all eighties to me.

 

Cool 64

 

Wow, I bet that Merc 4 door, suprised a few people..... Never judge a book, by its cover!

Ken, 60's seems right to me!

 

I love that 64, and that garage rocks!

 

I have NEVER understood why the '63-'65 Impala's gained a foot hold over the Galaxies.

Such a better looking car hands down.
