Brazilian Galaxies '67-'83

**ShotRod64** · 05-20-2009, 02:12 PM

This was an interesting little tidbit I found on a blog about Legendary Ford Magazine. The link to the blog will be below.

And for those who truly love the off beat, there�s a story on Ford of Brazil. Seems that Ford sent them the tooling for the 1966 Galaxie 500 and from 1967 to 1983, Ford of Brazil produced 77,850 of these classic American land yachts based on the same body shell, changing bumpers, grill and trim (the last Brazilian-built 1983 Ford had exactly the same instrument panel as the 1965 Ford Galaxie 500/LTD). How�s that for maximizing the value of the tooling?

Oh, lord. Have you noticed that since this thread has the word "Brazilian," there's an advertisement for hair removal at the bottom? (Because of "brazilian waxing" I suppose)

It might be gone by the time you look, but I love that when you use a word, the advertisements are adjusted accordingly.
