This month, my 64 Galaxie and I reached the "51 years of ownership" mark. Purchase price in 1969: $750; 46, 819 miles.

We have not aged a bit.

Started out as a Gal 500, but over the years, I converted her to a 500XL.

Second trans, 3rd motor, orig 352/2504v, used 352/250//4v; rebuilt 390/300/4v; roughly 220,000 miles today.

Except for the VIN, there is nothing on the car that isn't from an XL from the front fender/rear quarter moldings, hubcaps, buckets, console, even the horn rim and glove box molding.
