Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 64 Ford Galaxie project.

What are you doing for exhaust on the Galaxie Dave?

Its actually got split duals with a crossover, skinny pipe but it sounds good.

Even choked through the cast iron manifolds?

Awesome work man. I picked up a 67 fastback that sat for 25 years in Tucson last year. I got the 390 going and fixed the brakes but she's a long way away from being anywhere close to that one.
I have some experience with the 12 valve and have thought about that for a long time. I have to agree about the tear drop too, not on any of my cars. My car was brittney blue with a whimbleton white painted top and she's going back to those colors some day. Keep it up!

That coil needs a shot of black IMO.

I agree, its an eyesore.

Lookin good man!

I chit you not one ounce,...TV sponsors will pay to have stuff like you're doing televised.

It's going on already, and there's not a hell of a lot of people who throw themselves into it like you do.

Your skills, your family, and your story is plenty enough to base a reality TV show on.

Seriously, dude,...you need to look into it.

I wish I knew who to turn you to, but I don't. I'd guess that a first step would be to contact a local news station, tell them the story of how you financed your shop with the restoration of that Roadrunner, then show them what you're doing with it.

You've got a story, (from way back) a set of skills, and an ongoing series of projects that "manly" types will tune in to watch on TV.

I'm tellin' ya. You get in touch with the right people and take on the right projects, there's some big money to be made.

The big thing you got going for you is the ability and the willingness to do stuff like this. From a TV perspective, you've got a nice looking family that jumps in and does their part,...and you've got the story of the Roadrunner that made it all possible, as well as the Mustang that you built for Weezy which promptly got wadded up.

People will pay for your story, man. You've just got to find the right people to present it to.

It's going on every day.

You might as well get your piece of it.

This could be the first episode,...call it, "Marine Christine"

Restore a '58 Plymouth Fury with a 413 in it with dual 4 barrels and a posi track 9" Ford read end.

The crowd will go wild when you kick it sideways while doing a smoky burnout as the credits roll.

,...and the sponsors will pay the cost of the restoration and give you a big payday on top of it.

Or,...if Steven King kicks about it, you could just call it "Marine Four Thirt-TEEN.

Lots of tatts or ZZ Top style beards for ratings.

Bristoe is onto something here, Dave.

Better have your people check into it.

Snork! His people...

His people are his family and they b building hot rods man... Go Dave go!

Better than pretend people!

I think Bristoe is on to something too Dave.

If you can get televised, and get "AJ" Janic to work for you....I'll work for you for free.....

I'm thinking she needs to be a read head! Mucho betta!

Can she handle the, um, tool?

I'd watch that any day over the bearded monkey and the arrogant dickhead on Fast N Loud!

Lol. I like that show but it's wore out I its welcome.

Now...let's get back to posting those pics!!

That's bad ass.

Thanks for the encouragement!
