1971 Ford LTD/Galaxie
400m Engine, C6 Trans
She was built in America for the NZ Government, shipped to OZ to be finished as a right hand drive.
When i got my hands on her, she was in a very sad state. 1 headlight and 1 tail light worked... that was the electrics in all its glory!
But iv been chipping away over the 5ish? years of ownership. Iv replaced/repaired the front suspension bushes (i have the rears waiting to go in), all shocks, brakes, complete wiring loom, headlights, and various other trade me goodies.
Iv pulled out the engine and overhauled it with an Eldebrock manifold, Holley 650 spreadbore carb, Mallory twin point dizzy with Acell super coil.
Already had custom extractors fitted, 3" single exhaust with a total of 1 resonator.
I have removed the lower gravel guard that ran along the bottom of the whole car (and repaired the rust it was hiding)
The interior is ok other than seats being shagged/shagged on too much.
let me know your thoughts
