RE: 1963-406,cross bolt was a mid year introduction
By Travis Miller - 02/10/2001 2:46:40 PM; IP 152.163.204.204
I agree with you that they were only used in racing. However the crossbolted 406 was a mid-year introduction for the 1962 season as the 427 was the mid-year introduced for the 1963 NASCAR season which started in Feb. The 1963 1/2 fastback Galaxies with 427 engine came out in February of 1963, just in time for Daytona. There were also a few fastback 406's built as a friend of mine had one which I rode in many times. His was a 385 horse single 4-bl.

I guess my reason for bringing up this topic is to straighten out reality that seems to have gotten changed over the years. If some of us older guys who were there in the 60's don't try to keep the facts straight, how can the youth know what actually happened with FE's. I see no need for younger FE enthusiasts to spend time and money looking for something like a crossbolted 406 to restore a 1962 or 63 Galaxie when it really was only used in NASCAR. I hope everyone can appreciate what I am trying to do for the FE cause. Let's try to keep the facts straight.
