    I just bought a 68 Galaxie myself and it's pretty good condition, runs and drives. I bought it as to be a daily driver/weekend fun car that my grandson, who's 11 and just moved in with me to ticker around with and to be his first car when he turns 16 but he don't know that yet, it needs a good clean up some interior work, It needs a new dash pad, the one that's on it is beyond repair and there's a rip at the seams in the drivers bench seat but were just going to find some cheap Mustang bucket seats to put in it. It will also need some body and paint work, It's gold with white vinyl top which is in REALLY good shape so we have decided were going to keep and just recondition. there's a pretty sizeable dent in the trunk and it has the usual dings and dents in to for a 57 year old car. It was garage kept here in South-Central Arizona, When we repaint it were going to repaint it the original Sunlit Gold and then we'll just repaint the wheels gold as well and put some baby moons on it, I paid $3500 for it and not planning on spending alot on it, I've got a $10,000budget for it and what we have planned for it I don't think I'll even hit 10k.

    Single points is correct. Dual points were on specific high performance engines, not a 390 two barrel. Good solid combo, durable and long lived.

    matt garage… your 68 actually have C-6 auto transmission mated to 390 ..:FMX only goes on small block 351cleveland,351M and 400M only from 69 to 81 or82 i think

      FMX came behind some FE's but not super common.
