    I like the way it is,but time will tell.Maybe gloss out the body to give it an all over shine.for now I dig it this way
     
  7. Yea sometimes having a back seat is pretty cool even if you aren't dating.

    Looks nice.

    Good trade. These are the most aggressive looking front ends on Galaxies IMO. Have fun with it!

    Very well done ! Straight, nice ride...and the 2 Doors are not as plentiful as you might think: Many gave their lives for Hardtop & Convertible Restos.

    (At one time I owned a '63 Galaxie 500 Hardtop...nice Crusiers' ! )
