sweet ride! what are you going to do with it? I mean it looks too clean to drive :)
 
I know someone who has a white one.
Very cool!
 
Kevin, congrats on the new wheels. Enjoy her.
 
Very cool. 775 miles a 1/4 mile at a time. That's about 3000 runs :)
 
Yeah it's a sweet deal. Fortunately we have good weather year round here in SoCal to keep it that way.
Spoke to the 3rd owner who did the restoration so I am comfortable with the build.
 
Always loved those. When I was a kid, my dad bought a 64 4 door Galaxie for my sister (289/2bl). The can ran like a top, had solid power, even with the mild engine, and I remember my dad saying how good the gas mileage was. Once I got older and knew enough to ask, I questioned my father as to why he hadn't purchased for her, a near identical one with the 390. He was not amused...
 
Love it, love it, love it ........:thumbsup
 
Side-oiler?
 
No Ross its a center oiler. Side oiler blocks came right after this one.
No worries for me. 6,000 RPMs is plenty. 7,000 will just have to wait.
 
Wow! I am not big into classic cars but that is mint. Nice catch.
 
That car is beautiful. Color is cool as well. Ought to be a handful with the 427.
 
Nice cruiser, Kevin. Congrats on the pick up.
 
That's a nice car Kevin, enjoy many miles with smiles

Yeah, center oiler for the way you'll drive this car is fine. The 427SO I have is the "nastiest" engine of anything I own, or have ever owned. Can't wait to hear it.......
 
Great find and good deal in my opinion
 
I like the Thunderbolt. It was a monster.
 
Gorgeous car. Great color.
