| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2001 Location: New York | | | A few people mentioned a 67 Impala/Caprice.... my drummer has a numbers matching 67 Biscayne 427 4 speed car that we found 15 or so years ago. Other than being painted white it is an original car in really decent shape for it's age. The wild thing is it was purple from the factory, which was a 1967 only color for a GM. Doing some more research we've determined it's one of maybe 5 cars built with the engine/trans and color combo.... a very rare car to say the least. For now the car is in hiding waiting it's turn for a resto. |

In the 70s I hung out with a girl that had one. A beast on the hiway. Factory 8-track.
She wound up trading it for a BMW 2002. Sheesh. |

The Galaxie has been a great car and surprisingly not too hard to find parts for. Also not a rare beast so it's been a lot easier on the wallet than some of the others suggested in this thread would be. |

My dad's friend built a '40 Ford Coupe from the chassis up. His other friend built a Mercury (somewhere around '50). Ultimate mob car. They're in car shows all the time. Quote:

70 Hemi Cuda or 70 Camaro. Year of my birth.
Late 60s Camaros and Mustangs are nice, but ubiquitous.

a good machine | A couple more points you may want to consider...
Galaxies were sold as family cars, so air conditioning was a popular option. That was a requirement for me since I live in Texas and I love my AC. Also required was a good sized trunk so I can carry my gig rig. I actually got more than I bargained for in that department, but the trunk space requirement put Mustangs, Camaros, Cudas etc off my shopping list when I went searching for my '60's cruiser. |
