Here are all the pics I have of my Convertible 1968 Galaxie 500 all original was a 1 owner when I bought it from an eatate sale. Was a good friend of mines Wifes car she passed away he wanted me to make it pretty again and he passed while I was in the progress.I bought from his daughter after I drove it in his funeral.Less than 95k on car.Needs some more tinkering to make perfect.Its next after the Mach.
Headed to 4th of July car Show.

Looks real nice and a convertible too! It reminds of the 68 Ford XL my sister had. It had the disappearing headlights and I reminder she came out one morning and someone had stolen the headlight assemblies.

Hard way to get a car but a very nice car.
Good to know that someone cares: about friends and cars.

Love it! If I had the money and the space I would have so many older cars. I just love them.
Although I like my new cars for longer trips there's nothing like the nostalgic feel of an oldie but goodie! Thanks for sharing!
