Impressive! My uncle had a '67 Galaxie sedan - I still remember that car, and I had a school chum whose dad had a ragtop - once I got a ride - light blue with a light blue interior - seats were covered with that rubbery plastic that had a million puckered bubbles in it - Summertime with the roof down, all I remember is I stuck to the seat.
While we are on the topic - the other day I was browsing Kijiji - as I am wont to do and I am sure that there was a Galaxie of this vintage - a coupe - but it seemed more a muscle car - slightly more aggressive stance but mostly it seemed to me as though the rear C pillars were more raked - not a full on fastback but, just a little more.
When I went back I couldn't find the ad - could I have been imagining this? did such a car exist? (I know they had a 7 litre - but that doesn't seem to change the sheet metal)

Yep - I remember when that model came out - maybe mid-year '67...?
Did a search and found this one. Big beasts, they were!

The picture is a '68.
And I remember one model being called "Pro-Touring" or something like that. Don't know if that was an official name.
