Default Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Found this on another site, but unfortunately don't know the time or the story. If you look closely, you can see the 'Bird emblems at the bottom of the fenders, the big drum brakes and, most telling, the 15" spinner wheelcovers that only came on hipo Galaxie500XL's. You will also see the front tires look unworn, while the rear is almost bare. This is almost certainly a 1964 Ford Galaxie500XL likely fitted with the R-code 425hp 427 or possibly the Q-code 410hp 427 that was parked in a lake or river sometime in the mid '60s. My guess is that the owner bought it, beat it, and decided the 427 could find a home in a lighter car and he could be relieved of payments if he reported it stolen.
