Hello all, Names Danny, got a 64 Galaxie 500XL Convertible ,390FE w/3spd Cruis-o-matic. My Dad's had it since the mid 70's but I've kinda taken over it and am beginning on a winter restore adventure on it. Pulled the motor/tranny,gonna freshin those up. Also doing all bodywork and new paint exterior wise. Interior is nice though will be getting new carpet and kick panels. Don't get me wrong the car was a looker before but my dadnever drove it ...always garaged it. I never understood that. If you had a great car like that plus it being a convertible I'd drive it every nice day I could. So Now that I have the helm now I'm putting all new gaskets,oil and fuel pumps,hot cam and timing set,rebuild the heads,new seals for the tranny and high stall converter.The main problem I was having was the car was leaking like crazy...mainly from the front of the tranny. I will also try to rebuild the power steering system myself. I'm also adding a factory A/C system as well. So anyone who's reading this and has a setup in there galaxie I would love to see pics of where you mounted the drier,and hose routing to the firewall!.. Also by joining this forum I'm looking for ideas and suggestions for my rebuild, like cam size, where I can find some shorty headers to fit my convertible...etc.. so again great to be here. -Danny
