The new owner left his home at 8pm last night and showed up at 6 a.m. this morning, checked the car over, paid for it in a huge stack of greenbacks and then headed back to Wisconsin with it. 9 hour drive. DRIVING the Galaxie back. I assume all is going well as I have not had any phone calls filled with cursing and threats, Lol.
Damn nice car, i have always been a Ford man and fond of the FE engines. I am surprised to see that had the 9 3/8ths rear or even that anyone knew what it was. I have had 2 of them in the past, both had 4.20 gears and came out of 1972 F-100 4X4's. Absolutely huge ring/pinion! Comparable to the D-60. The last one i had i cork screwed the pinion out the front of the 3rd member, destroyed the whole 3rd member and twisted both axles.
Ehhhh..... maybe. Tom, whats your total vehicle count over the years? The next one for me will be number 129. :Brow:
I am on the opposite end of the spectrum.... I have been owner/ part owner of 7 vehicles and I still own 3 of them.
