This is when a car had true class.

But they didn't last. Keep the fluids fresh in most new cars and they're good for +200K miles.

65 Galaxie is to me a much prettier body style.

Did you mean '64?

Because '65 and '66 were basically the same.

The '65 through '67 Ford Galaxies more or less resembled the classic '65 through '67 Pontiac GTOs.

IMO, nothing of that era tops the 65-67 GTO.

No, I meant 65 and 66. To me, there is a big difference in the bodies, bout like the difference in chevys, 62, 63 and 64.

The 65 has straight lines, where the 66 is rounded, bowed up looking to me. HOWEVER, in these pictures, that 66 looks better than in person. Somehow, it IS remarkably similar looking to a GTO!

Sorry, but I don't see anything near a 'big difference' between the '65 and '66 Ford Galaxie...
