    50 Years and Counting

    We did it. We hit the magic 50!

    Bought my 64 Galaxie 50 years ago with 46,819 miles. She now has 219,725 miles.

    Hot summer for car-shows. Went to 5 shows. Won 4 trophies, "Top 25 or Top 40", stuff like that. After roughly 35 years of showing the car, the trophy case is now officially closed due to lack of space.


    Nothing new here from last year, but for the newcomers:

    Same here. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.

    Car started as a 352/4v; I put in a used 352/4v, and then a 390/300.
