  • Cammed 352 FE big block
  • C4 auto
  • Bucket seats and full console from another Galaxie (still has the column shifter)
  • Painted 1996 Dodge Ram Blue in the late 90s
  • 427 R Code Pyrex Headlight covers (very very rare piece)

The first pictures were taken in the late 80s when my grandfather, my father, and his brother put this car together and painted it in their back yard.

I included some pictures of my grandfather winning a couple shows in the very early 2000s.

May my grandfather rest in peace 😇 Whenever I get in this car I still tear up 🥹 This means the world to me — this car will NEVER be sold.
