This car is mostly complete and almost entirely original. Hard to find items are present such as 7-litre specific trim, oodgrain steering wheel, nd console. I have two of the original hubaps. The 7-litre was introduced by Ford in 1966 to showcase Ford Motor Company's all new 428cid engine. 1966 was the only year in which the 7-litre was it's own model. It was reduced to an option package in 1967 and vanished after that. I have tried to be as accurate as possible in the space allowed in describing the condition of this Galaxie.
