A few years ago someone had the Phil Bonner Lafayette Ford '63 Galaxie on Ebay for sale. The car did not sell as far as I know. I'm looking for contact information for the owner of this car. I'm told it is in Oregon. The owner also had a T-bolt and '64 AFX Comet for sale on ebay at the same time. Also, I've heard rumors that Phil's second Al Means/Frank Vego '63 Galaxie is still around. I'd also like to speak to the owner of this car also. Any information anyone could furnish would be appreciated. If you do not wish to post this information on the net please email at troublemaker427@comcast.net. I'm also looking for photos of '62 Galaxies at the 1962 US Nationals in Indy. Any information related to the 11 '62 LW Galaxies is wanted. Thanks!!
These guys have a collection of Galaxies (not a '62 LW that you are looking for) and may be able to help you with some contacts and information. They do have a '63-1/2 LW, though. http://www.mikescl***iccars.net/galaxie-collection.php Malcolm
What about John Vermeech (spelling of the last name is probably incorrect) He knows tons of Ford people due to his working at Ford
think he also has a company called "total performance" ...think roadstar or proenfo know him ...i'll ask my buddy , he's up on that 427 l/w stuff.... brandon
