7 litre Galaxie
By Eyes - 12/26/2001 6:01:32 AM; IP 207.144.227.96
I have the opportunity to purchase a 7 litre Galaxie for a good price. It is described as being rusty and is probably good for parts only. I'm not interested in the car and will part it out....only interested in the 428 for a Shelby clone project. I presume this motor is good enough for that application. Is there a quick visual inspection I can make to assure that the engine is indeed a 428? Help with a vin number or visuals to make sure it is a 7 liter?

I am dubious to begin with because he also is advertising a 73 429 Mustang convertible as "last year of the big block/big body combo." I don't believe the 429 made it past 1971 in the Mustang. I'm not really interested in a misrepresented 390.

Thanks,

Eyes
