Great picture Alex. I had no idea that someone had stuffed a 427 into a coupe. I know that Ford had Hollman-Moody do the 15 AFX '65 Fastbacks. Now to own one of those 15 Mustangs!

Dave,
If I remember, if only I could remember, I think that one of Alex's Chicago neighbors, Ron Pellegrini from Oaklawn was one of the first to stuff a 427 wedge into a coupe. It had a one piece tilt front end and about a 10% set back on the block. I seen it run once at either Gary Indiana or Martin Mich. Ten second cars were rare in 1965.

Too Cool I think that I'm going to get a trailer hitch for the 65 Galaxie so I can Pull the 67 Mustang on the trailer.

I always thought that a 66 T-Bird Landau, black with a white vinyl top and factory KH wire wheels would be the coolest tow car for MM on an open trailer.
