Looks good , I wont a ride in the back seat

I thought my car was big. That back seat looks long enough for me to lay down on. And I'm 6'-6". Looking good. Keep up the good work.

that dare rear seat looks to be old old old school stuff right dare from back in the horse and buggy days

Yea but those buggy's didnt have a horse pulling them like dis one

Thanks for the compliments guys. Heading out to work on it some more before our cookout today. getting ready to spend some big $$$$$ on all the interior in the up coming week as well as going to order all new glass for it too. I was goinng to run Lexan Margaurd, but since have changed my mind back to the original glass. The Margaurd was going to run me about $900 for (2) sheets of 4X8 in which I was going to make the winndshield and backglass out of 1/4" which is really a minute saving for weight but I did not want to have center supports in the windsheild to keep it from pushing in either. I was goinng to use 3/16 for the side glass so the front windows could still fit in its stainless frame and roll up and down. So I am scratching that idea in favor of new regular glass and maybe a power window kit for the fronts. I think they would be nice when I am in the staging lanes buckled up instead of having someone prop the doors open.

Beautiful car Travis!

Looking good, Travis.

Looking good Travis. Can't wait to see the interior in.---RED

Travis,your doing great work. I can't wait to hear you row the gears.

Thanks to all the guys on here who have complimented and even given me some ideas. This is one of those projects that you want to do one time and one time only, so for that I am taking my good ole time. Each time I go to a race somewhere, be it local or elsewhere, I see something I want to implement to the Galaxie. Keep the input coming.I think I have a paint scheme that will be over the top yet well suited for the 60's era..........I really want the car to appear factory yet have some killer details that will set it apart from the others. I'll let you know more as we get closer to buttoning this thing up.

travis where did you get them valve covers ? i want a set
