Maybe 1966 with a 390 or 7 litre engine and a 9-inch diff?

Yup your right it is a 1966 ford galaxie 7-litre...made only 1 year in 1966 and the 7-litre was made only as a optional car in 1967. I bought this one from the original owners nephew, he had died and it was sold to settle the estate. -i WAS VERY LUCKY TO FIND IT.

My very first new car, a 1966 Chevelle SS/396, 375 H.P. - 410 rear end with a M21 Muncie close ration 4 speed. Knee knocker tach, radio and heater, that be it...

I like that body style of chevelle better than the "A" body chevelles

Trying for a better and bigger pic Mr. Gen/64!! That's close enough.. Getting ready to put a fresh set of plugs in her and head for ThunderValley in about a month....Nothing like an old Fart acting like a kid is there!

Nice Camaro! I have an old HS friend that has restored a '69 RS. He's done a great job with it, but now he's thinking about selling it. If I could only afford what he's asking for it. He had a '68 RS (had a high-revving 327 w/Powerglide trans) in HS and he ended up selling it for a "party van". I could not believe he did that, and I know he's kicking himself for it nowadays.

CarltonsKeeper, CarltonsKeeper, CarltonsKeeper...

You're behaving very adolescent. I'd venture to say that you're acting very
much like a REDSKIN!

So there.

NOTICE! There isn't a LOL!
Redskin behavior simply isn't acceptable... not even for Generals... or
Spartans!

I've just started looking at these posts. It looks like a 1968 Ford Galaxy, that
could very well be an unmarked Cobra.

Rusty Staub had one in 1968. He was the only General I knew with a
legitimate job. I think he made assistant manager at a Humpty Dumpty -
which means he held a job for over 6 months.

Rusty had an incredible Galaxy 500 fastback. Dark Green. I'll swear it had a
428 Cleveland, but I don't know. Rusty was very humble, so he probably
kicked Ferguson's butt in a race.

I've done answered it. Hey 78, I'll give you a $100 for it, sight unseen!

I'll bet that weenie car could do 0-60 in half an hour. LOL!

Well it is actually a 66 galaxy 500 7-litre 428 with all the badging of 7-litre, bucket seats console, 93/8 rear end, c6 tranny, a pretty bullet proof setup it has, and this one is green.

I've got to see this one... you're custom van is...

[bluedogok]

My parents had a 66 LTD with a 390 in it when I was little, bought used in 1968 at Dub Richardson Ford. I vaguely remember the night that they bought it at the used lot where Wendy's is now. Scott Chevrolet was still across the street where Carpet World used to be.

One thing I remember about that LTD, the A/C worked so well that you could get frost on the registers on the dash.

It was the same burgundy color as the one on this brochure.

[Prunepicker]

I made the Turner Turnpike in 55 minutes in a 68 LTD.

I'll never forget getting smoked by a '74 Kawasaki Mach 3 at the Stroud
on ramp. I don't know how fast I was going because the speedometer was
bouncing between 100 and 120. The Mach 3 made me look like I was parked.
