    Cool little vid about a badass old Galaxie

    It still amazes me that engines that crazy could come from the factory at one time.

    Dang that sounds good......that's what a V8 should sound like.

    Awesome, nice find.

    I want a car just like that someday. A factory hot-rod with a stick-shift and loads of patina .

    I figured this would be Leno's 7-Litre, but I was pleasantly surprised.

    Nice. Had a 390FE in a pickup. The Idle was similar but far less angry. Good times...

    Nice link. Thanks for posting that. I've never heard a 427 running before. Sounded great...

    There's more 64 Ford action (convertible this time) in the video for "I Drove All Night To Get To You" by Roy Orbison. Of course, you have to tear your eyes away from Jennifer Connelly.
