Re: Interior Work on Ms. American 3.14159

Hey All,
At 5:01 p.m., there came a knock on the door. I got downstairs just in time to see the UPS Brown Van pulling away. I opened the door, and there was a box with the return address reading "Greg Donahue"!

It was full of wondrous stuff!

Especially interesting was a letter from Mr. Donahue (himself). In this letter is a REALLY interesting paragraph that I will here quote:

"In 1964 Ford built 49,242 Galaxie 500 4-Door Hardtops. They also built 32,050 390P Police Interceptor motors. Yours is not the only one that was built or even the only one built at whatever assembly plant yours was assembled in. I have sold parts for other 4-Door Hardtop 390s both Z Code and the P Code to approximately 10 or 12 different individuals. I even had a 64 4-Door Hardtop with a 427 Dual Quad and a 4-speed. Since I do not go on the internet, I don't know what is showing up there but those cars are out there." (boldface added)

So there you have it folks...

Now what I'd like to do is FIND those OTHER 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 4-Door Hardtop 390 P Code vehicles. Maybe we could start a "registry"!

Anyway, the weekend is going to be abuzz with the installation of H/D Unit now that I have the parts (Heater Core, Inlet Duct, and Heater Hose). Wooo Hoooo!

Hope you all are well.

Press UNO for English.
