Very nice 500XL. Top of the Galaxie line. Open the driver door, there is a data plate with a series of letters and numbers. I can see you have at least a 390 because of the badges behind the front wheels. only 390 and larger motors had badging.

The Data Plate info is the exact build info of the car. If you list the numbers I am happy to decode the car. The numbers will look like this:

62A DM 17 26H 33 1 6
4Z61X100001



There is also a build sheet stashed somewhere in the car - under the carpet or behind one of the interior panels, look for it if you ever rebuild the interior.
