Love those cars too... My parents had one when I was a kid, it was the car they bought new after I was born since they couldn't fit 3 kids into a VW bug. They had it until 1977 or 78 when the frame finally rotted away from all the road salt.

Steve - Do you think Corey is trying to lose you on purpose??? 
Corey - I'll have to check the old family photos when I'm visiting the folks at Christmas... I know my dad still talks about that car and would love to have another one.
I remember it pretty well, it was lime green with black interior. We were the only family around that had four kids and a two door car, my dad was too much of a rebel to buy a station wagon, lol.

It is my favorite out of all the Galaxie styles. Reminds me of a big Fairlane

I know our Galaxy had the 390... We only had one 4 door when I was kid, after the Galaxy rusted away, dad bought a used mid 70's Plymouth Fury that used to be an unmarked cop car. Only had that a short time and it was back to a two door 78 LTD (which I had to learn to drive in), then a couple different T-birds, and now my mom drives an 09 Mustang.
I think every 16 year old should learn to drive in a 70's tank... it builds character! lol

I agree Rob, it also builds driving skill. None of that newer driver assist crap to make new kids lazy(er).

Fortunately, he had a 75 highboy, so I drove that most of the time.
