My first car was my grandmothers 4 door plain Jane in-line 6 with a 2speed automatic 63 Galaxie. I loved that car.

Good old Fordamatic. I'll bet that was a screamer. :laugh: The first '63 I ever owned was an XL, so it had buckets and a console and was a 390. Odd thing about it was that it was a 4 door hardtop with a factory 4-speed. Had another XL that was a rag top, again with a 390 and the four speed. Strange thing about this one was someone ordered it with a 2.73 rear gear in it, bad choice for a manual car. It was a much better car after I installed a 3.50 gear. I know it was factory from the gear code in the door jamb, also I knew the families that both of these cars had been in since new. Had several each of '63 and '64 Fords, absolutely love those cars, especially the '63s.
