Replica of my '64 Galaxie that I put my +30 over 406 straight out of my stock car in. This is the only pic I have, so bumper and some finish work was done later. This one was pretty fast on the track and real fast on the street!! This is just curbside, nothing overboard...

Nice build Rett, and  a very nice car for the street. That 406 should have been fast.

Wheel wells opened up, but not finished off in the picture. Fun car, btw, it did have a 4-speed, don't remember what gears tho. Not too many Chevy guys in the neighberhood wanted to mess with it! LOL

Very nice replica, Rett!!!  I can hear that 406+ in my mind and its septet music all the way.  Those big Ford's were hard to beat back in the day.  Ahhh, the memories this stirs up, thank you...love the wheels, the rear wheel opening and the stance!!!😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤗🏁gb

I know what you mean. A few of my small block Chevy friends used to love listening to this one! It was my race motor and did hold one track record, so it was pretty good....
