I'm a 1961 Ford Galaxie.
Born in Canada I was a special child made right hand drive in a deep shade of black and shipped to hong kong.
I served my time there until 1972 when i was shipped to England. Sadly things there didnt turn out as nice as i'd hoped somebody stuffed my holes with body filler and sprayed my a nasty shade of bronze!
I was then used for a few years and the rolled into a workshop.
I hoped I would then be cared for but i was pulled apart and left for dead!
After 15 years laying in a terible state I found a new owner who was going to use me for parts and then kill me off! Thankfully he realized how special i was and left me alone.
But now I was outside on the back of a truck!
Thankfully my new dad found me and has started to put me back together!
He says my bodys too bad to be black again but i don't think he'll give up.
My Interests
Rock n Roll and anything from my younger days!
I'd like to meet:
Other cars my age, and the people who look after us.
Also anybody that can tell dad about my past, I really can't remember.
Music:
Rockabilly, Rock n roll
