Anyone know where I can find out the rarity of my 64? I'm really curious. I was told it is one of 1600, but with over 593,000 built in 64, I wonder.
The base 352 (60-64) had FORD stamped rocker covers didn't they?Thunderbird Valve covers are a 390 Z code thing. T-bird valve covers got put on every FE I saw before the age of 21....
Anyhow you got a 64 Galaxie 500 XL with a 390, nothing rare about it. Just a wonderful old White on black Galaxie![]()
Just keeping an eye on you...Yes they did. Thunderbird V/C's only came on the actual T-bird 390 4V engines. No 2V engines received the T-bird lettering from the factory that I've ever laid eyes on.
Just like the Mercury FE, the only engines in a Merc I ever saw with the Merc wording was the 4V versions. the 2V Mercs I saw were all blank V/C's
Almost FE...That is a 1960 Galaxie/Sunliner Firewall with a 352 4V (Thunderbird edition) the first year Ford breached the 350 hp mark and the 150 MPH track mark with a car exceeding 3400 lbs...
Please tell me this is your car and you're going to take me for a ride in it!
