It needed a new convertible top after sitting in storage for 25 years.
The voltage regulator went bad soon after I purchased the car.
One exhaust pipe rusted through.
The original valve cover gaskets rotted.
It handles very solidly at any speed and rides smoothly over bumps and rough roads.
The heater is amazing. It is so strong the car can be comfortable driven the top down even in the winter.
Except for height, this car is as big as most SUV's.
Acceleration is as quick as the nearly two ton curb weight allows for.
Surprising as it may seem, the car takes turns pretty well.
The factory drum brakes are not up to the task of controlling this car.
The engine is simple and easy to service and make repairs on.
What year is it a 1966 or 1967?
Also watch for rust, even the floor boards tend to rust out on those full size Fords.
My sister had a 1965 LTD back in 1970-71, the floors were already rusted out. It was a huge vehicle. I took my driver's license test in it.
This car is (a 1967 model) was manufactured on 23 June 1966 in Mahwah, NJ.
I just got my '66 galaxie convertible and agree with everything said thus far, especially the braking system. After driving newer cars with power disc brakes, this car could put you in danger if you're not careful. With that said, it is an awesome car, easy to work on, and looks great!
