    My son does 5 grand pulls down my driveway in his 82 Datsun 210 wagon that we cherry bombed and added a hater pipe, pointing up and out just behind the rear door. My neighbors LOVE me. Fortunately he has recently bought his own house. But I’m about to start work on my 64 comet, which I’m considering leaving straight piped. 🤷‍♂️

      I want the nasty sound of straights on the 65 Galaxie but dont want the hassle and stink eye of the local PD when Im driving through town so I bought a set of electric cutouts to put before the flowmasters. Flip a switch and go from a deep growl to a insane hown in a second hahah.

    we all make mistakes in life..
    the true test is owning up to them
    so.....while your owning up to mstakes....there is one you guys can rectify...
    its as simple as getting a Starliner on here and NPD can start making parts for it.
    see.....mistake rectified...everybody wins!!!

    Jeff, Brother, Screw ups are part of the fun hahaha. Hell every rate once in a while when doing something that is actually a screw up you find a better way to do it that somehow evaded the designers. It's rare but happens.
    "Im Totally Stupid on Galaxies" As soon as it either warms up or I get the heater in the shop hooked up I will be going over the resto on my two Galaxies by the Factory manual and uploading it to my TH-cam Channel so Stop on by. I will let you know when we're good to go.
    Galaxies are pretty simple and if you have Fairlane exp you pretty much have Galaxie exp for the most part. I chose the Galaxie simply because of one reason. Hello 9" rear. I mean with a Galaxie if the project car turns out to be a real pig and you can't really fix it you can strip the trim and rear end and make your money back plus some so it's a good platform.
