1961 Galaxie?
A careful study of failure will yield the ingredients for success.

Yep, at least what's left of a '61 Galaxie.

True.  The owners are supposed to call me when they get around to unburying it this spring. It is a two door but that is all I know at this time.

You might be surprised at what's salvageable off of it. Trim pieces, brackets etc. The little stuff can be insanely hard to find sometimes. And who knows, it may have a complete 390 Interceptor, or 375 hp version.

Doug is thinking like me. The sons of the old Ford guy who owns it think it is a small block but I will keep my fingers crossed.

Would have to be a Y Block or FE, or six cylinder in '61 unless someone swapped a later engine into it.  Joe-JDC
