1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie 500 Fastback
"Resistance is Futile"
1980 - 1987: Our first car, a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z28, went through many transitions. (age related). It was sold in Corsicana, Texas in 1987 due to "life happening." It ran 7.70s on an 1/8 mile track. Out of curiosity, would like to know location and current condition if anyone has access to that.
VIN: 124379N567497, Texas License 135 ASX. (Click on thumbnails to enlarge photos.)
October: We found out about the Galaxie from our daughter's boyfriend Justin. He told us the car was bought by his father to be turned into a race car but he had decided to restore a truck instead. It had been sitting out in a pasture with the windows down for about 5 years. We contacted Mark (the dad) and bought the Galaxie for $100 bucks & Mark even had a car trailer and helped us get it home.
