Thank you

Thank you so much I really appreciate that

I loved this!❤

That’s cool

Awesome thank you

Thank you .. yes we try to do most everything together

To Jerry Ezzell: you forgot to say about the pet goat being involved, too!

@@nygelmiller5293 Yikes, I should have mentioned Rocky. He’s like the star of the channel. I guess I was just blindsided by the cute kids.

​@@Sleeperdude3S

That’s awesome thank you

That’s very cool

This one looks to have 429/460 swapped in!

Thank you

Thank you rocky is the best

@@Sleeperdude P.E.T.A. Disclaimer: No snakes were harmed in th making of this video.

That’s awesome

Yes thanks we hope so .. he is a good goat

The carb on that FE looks to be a 4300 series Motorcraft 4bbl.. Do'nt think they came out to 67. Could have a swapped motor, or swapped carb at least. 59 till 64 were notorious "tail-draggers", thus the over-head shocks.

To Just Travelling from Nygel Miller. Oh yes, I like ROCKY because of being raised around PEOPLE. My mother's friend, Anne kept saying "come round and see my goats." So we went round, and Anne opened the "garden gate" to the goat's enclosure. She went in, no problem. But when my mother and myself tried to go in, we got charged at!

Thanks for watching I’m glad you enjoyed it and Rocky loves being with people since we raised him on a bottle. Yes the grille is great !!

D.W. HOSTETTIER: you are the same age as this stylish car? You see what a stylish time you were born in to! I'm a bit older, at 69 but remember therefore, when such cars were NEW!

I agree thank you

I as well

If it takes too much for restoration you can always make a tribute of a stock car racer.

Thank you

Thank you I appreciate it

Wow what an idiot!!

Yes he did

Sounds like a great childhood

We love him too . He went to the racetrack with us when he was still on the bottle !! He is super sweet . Thanks for watching

My first real car, in 1972, I bought a '64 in San Diego. I was in the Navy, the rear main seal leaked like a sieve

@@jameskurdy4873 thank your for your service .... I wish you could get it back....this time with a blonde of questionable morals and large upper dimensions .....prefably with two letters

@@Sleeperdude I've got a fact for ya!!! All Delorians and Mustangs are related.. . John Delorian was on the original Ford design team for the Mustang!!! and to add some flavor to your Vienna sausages....the mustang concept was way more radical .. .....by the way...if you want go radical.... you should build a Thunderflite Thunderbird!!!... you ll love it

Seward

Yes

Thank you

That’s a great story

Thank you

Ok cool thanks

Looks like a 352 F.E. to me.

@@danielscott6787 from the outside you cant really tell ..but i will guess its a 360

And I'm seeing 460" and drag race rear suspension!

Hey man thanks for watching I appreciate it … there should be a link under my channel or go to store for shirts if your interested

That’s great, glad you are enjoying the videos

Thank you

That would just about make it a 500 XL. :)

Exactly !!

They are nice for sure . Thanks for watching

@@Sleeperdude When you get it running, be advised the Cruise-O-Matic has a different Shift Quadrant than other Automatic Transmissions. It should be labeled P-R-N-D2-D1-L. Some of the Fords instead of D2-D1 will have a White Dot for D2 and a White Dot surrounded by a Green Circle. When in D2, the transmission will always start in Second Gear and as this is the first position after Neutral, Non-Ford Owners and those who didn't read the owner's manual would always say the Fords were a DOG. If they would have pulled the shift lever down into D1 the transmission will start in First Gear and progress up through second and then into Third. To go from Neutral to D1 you just pull down on the shift lever until it stops naturally in D1, to go into Low or Reverse, the lever has to be pulled back towards the driver and then down or up to either L or R position. On my 64 500XL with the Floor Shifter, you pushed the Button on the top of the shift lever when selecting the L & R positions as well as Park. Good Lord ,my 64 Galaxie 500 XL Convertible and my 75 Scout II are the only two cars I am sorry I still don't have.

@@Sundancer268 IIRC all Ford slushboxes were called "Cruise-O-Matic"; C3, C4, C6 and FMX. What you're referring to was the optional "Select-O-Shift". How those worked varied by trans and year, for instance the 66 Select-O-Shift C4 had a green "2" which was second gear only, while the 66 Select-O-Shift C6 with a green 2 would shift 1-2 from start if placed in "2". Ford did some weird things through the 60's and 70's which neither make sense nor were well documented, and some of those (like small-block steam holes in the heads) can leave the average car nut baffled with 'unfixable' problems which a true Ford nut knows about. BTW, the "Select-O-Shift" version you refer to was to increase fuel mileage, while the 66 C4 version I mentioned was intended to allow you better slip-free starts on icy roads.

Wow that’s crazy . Glad you enjoyed it

They sure don’t make them like they use to … thanks for watching

Me too

Ok thank you

Thank you

Yes Rocky eats everything .. I’m absolutely terrified of snakes

True !!!!

Ok thank you

Thank you

Thank you I’m glad you found it

More videos to come soon !!! Thanks for watching

That’s great . Thanks for watching

That’s awesome . Thanks for watching

These cars usually went 150K - 250K without too much trouble...

Ok thanks

My Mom's car was a special "T" code, or something like that. It had four bucket seats, a floor shift and all Thunderbird running gear. Even the 390's valve covers had "Thunderbird" stamped on them. All stock.

Looks like a 429/460 385 series engine...

Good idea thank you

Thank you for watching although I disagree about the snake

Thank you

Yeah they got me

Thank you for watching

Thank you so much

Thank you I appreciate that

Yes I love them too thanks for watching

@@Sleeperdude watching ur videos reminds me of working on with my dad

That’s awesome thank you

Ok cool thanks

That’s awesome

That’s great

Thank you

Yes it’s sad

That’s great thank you

That’s cool

More like 10:1 and leaded gas crudded up the plugs by 10K miles...

Me too

Thank you

Ok thank you

I'd say it's a 460"... not an FE...

@@BuzzLOLOL It's an FE. @13:26 in the vid he shows the intake-to-head split being well under the valve cover; only FE's do that. These are later FE valve covers, they were more rounded in 64, probably a later engine with them but which one? That I do not know.

I hope it’s a 427

Doesn't look FE, looks 460" !

@@Sleeperdude - Try 460" !!!

That’s awesome thank you

Great story and thank you

I agree

They can be awesome and they can be terrible Rocky is the best

Oh wow that’s awesome

That’s awesome

That’s awesome

Thank you

Glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching

That sounds like it would be beautiful

@@Sleeperdude where in this country are you located. I love the 66 charger, red. I owned the Daytona charger, and being almost 80, I still miss it. I do enjoy your videos and the fact you include the kids. It’s beautiful.

Here I'm seeing 460" and drag race rear suspension!

That’s funny

Thank you I appreciate it

At CAM ROWE...I hate Heavy Metal. Modern Day Satantic GARBAGE! Just as Bad as JUNGLE music!!

Ok thank you

Doesn't look like an FE engine, might be a 429/460...

@@BuzzLOLOL Nope, FE engine not a 385 series engine

@@timothyharrison8953 - They came with FEs but this is obviously a 385 as seen at 20:17... FE valve covers sit 1/3 on intake manifold and 2/3's on head. This valve cover is only on the head.

That’s cool thank you

Actually it's a 4300 Motorcraft 4 barrel, which would not be original as it came out in 1967.

They are good looking cars

never happened. in 1964 Richard Petty was driving a Plymouth Fury and had a very good year. NASCAR was running what they called the baby grand series for the smaller cars but the Plymouth car that was run was the Valiant.

@@garycook2355 Either way MOPAR kicked FORDS ass.

The top engine in the 1st gen Barracuda was a 273 4bbl. It would be 68 when they shoe-horned a Hemi in them that they got 'fast' and gained respect on the streets and tracks.

I’m glad you enjoyed it .. I worked with an old man that called them casings and I thought it was hilarious

Its still a term used in many places.

Yeah I’m about 2 hours south of you. There will be other brands of cars I am not a Ford only guy at all I just bought 10 cars from the same guy

@@Sleeperdude Cool, I'll be watching for you to bring em' back to life!

Thank you for watching

Ok thanks

I'm seeing 460" and drag race rear suspension!

That’s cool

Thank you

@@Sleeperdude best of luck!! Wanna see more on this car too..

That’s cool

This one prolly 460" !

Most that year were 352 Y block.

@@jlyle51 - Y blocks have distributor at rear and only go 239 - 312"... gone by 1960... except for marine use... 332 - 428 are FE engines... distributor in front and valve covers sit on 1/3 on intake manifold and 2/3 on head, so easily spotted... This car looks to have 385-series engine 429 or 460...

He probably would try

Awesome

@@Sleeperdude Like you do with Ralphie and WaWa, my dad would let me drive it around in empty parking lots. I had a hard time getting used to the shifting (3 on the tree and a heavy clutch), yet the first gear synchro was smooth and after a while it got fairly easy for me. But it's weird that the one thing I remember the most about that car was that power steering. It was full on, no feedback, immediate response, spin it with your little pinkie, 1960s PS and you could really make that boat wallow. It seems funny to me that the only vehicle I currently own with PS just like that is my old Ford 4610 tractor. Every time I drive that thing it reminds me of being a kid and riding around with my dad.

I’m glad you enjoyed it thank you for watching

@@Sleeperdude My dad bought the '64 Galaxie 500 new -- I actually remember the day he brought it home from the dealership. It was simply beautiful, Guardsman Blue with a white top. The car performed so well for the three years my dad drove it, we decided to keep it and store the dark green '52 Chevy mom used to drive. It sat in my grandmother's garage for a couple of years before we finally sold it. Mom drove that fabulous car for years, it went through a couple of clutches but the engine clocked over 130,000 miles without any engine work at all.. My dad always said the life of any motor was determined by how frequently one changes the oil. I would like a clarification on the FE block -- is it a 352 or a 390, could be either one. The NASCAR images were also fabulous. I am glad Ralphie and your daughter are involved -- he is a handsome young man and seems to be very bright!

Imagine driving this one, looks to have a 460" !!!
