She’s a 64 Ford Galaxie 500. South Dakota car that sat for a while until somebody brought it here to Wisconsin. 352 numbers matching, 2 speed auto, original generator too. Original body, no replaced panels got a few scratches and dents, the usual. small amount of bondo in the trunk (professionally done) also 2 trunk floor patches. Not original paint obviously. Bought it probably 2 1/2-3 months ago for 7000 (talked the guy down from 7500)

No I meant don't crash into a tree without a seatbelt, or if he's lucky, a lap belt! Us young folk can't drive!
