My Galaxie got started in Dallas, TX as a 289 3-speed stick
"plain Jane" with no power steering,
air conditioning or power
windows. How this car
found its way to North Jersey - I'll never
know...but when I saw it in
the local want ad - I had to have it!
I purchased the car in February
1991 with no engine,
some mild road rash, and no rust whatsoever.
After reviewing my options for
a power plant, I decided to go
high-tech by installing a 1990
5-liter HO Mustang engine with a
5-speed trans. The engine
conversion was fairly straight-forward;
with the exception of the factory
engine wiring harness which was
the most challenging part of
the conversion. Other updates
include: power steering,
Adco heavy duty sway bars (front and
rear) with polyurethane bushings,
Monroe gasmatic shocks,
after market air conditioning,
and XL interior.
The Galaxie performs
like silk - truly late model
technology with classic car styling!
I hope you've enjoyed reading
about my Galaxie as much as I
enjoyed building it! Feel

or questions! Thanks for
