I just found this site.I am restoring one of the 50 64' Galaxie lightweights that were built with the 427 hi riser drag package.I raced this car back then,sold it in 66' and found it rusting in a guys backyard five years ago in CA near where I lived at the time.I am trying to put it back like it was then when I ran AA/S in NHRA Div 7.Almost done.

I remember watching the factory lightweights run! Thanks for sharing your project with us. I hope you'll post pictures of it finished! :-)
welcome to the forum fellow Arizonian. I learned to drive and got my license in a 64 2dr Galaxie. I did notice something......are those Keystone wheels?
Another AZ guy great. AND with great taste in cars. Keep us posted on you progress.

Welcome to CHR!!! Looking forward to more pics of your project. The car looks great. Nice to restore something you have had a previous association with, always makes it that more satisfying.
Welcome to the brotherhood! I guess I should be politically correct; and sisterhood.

Welcome.
To both CHR and Kingman.
Looks like you may be just down the street from me.
If the needs-a-little-love-Fairlane sitting on the trailer is any indication.
