| I do have four of them. One four door hard top , one two door hard top (the red one) , and two starliners all are 1961. what do you need? just the driver rear quarter. I will have to drive out to were they are in storage and look but I think the only one that has good quarters is the one starliner. That one is a factory hipo 390 car so there is now way we could cut it up. But there is a guy here in colorado that all he does is 61 galaxies. I don't have his number with me but will get it when I get to the shop and get you the number. Don't give up they are out there. I looked for years to find the red one then with in mounths after finding it I had bought the other starliner and the four door for $1200. |

| Nice looking ride. I hope you get everything put back soon. I love them old Fords, my dad had a 63 1/2 427 2 4-bbl car when I was growing up. I would like to find one like it someday. |

| LET'S GO HANG THAT SUM B@TCH!!!!!!!!!!!:-x Same thing just happened to my Sis's 62 Comet 2dr Custom. Some drunk f#ck smashed into it while parked & took off. Her insurance almost totalled it until we b#tched so much they finally agreed to fix it if she agreed to it being listed as a salvaged vehicle. It's such a mess I'm getting pissed all over again!! Anyway,it's all fixed with a new 1/4 panel. We paid the xtra $ & got the whole car painted,new interior & chromed bumpers. Just looking for a couple missing trim pieces & she'll be as good as new.  Good luck with your baby |

| Well I got the name and talked to a guy out in Colorado, it looks like he has the sheetmetal that I need, now its just a matter of getting it... This whole summer has been spent just staring at my old car.. I actually am crawlerless right now cause I needed to get funds to work on the ol gal and on my jeep cherokee daily driver.. so I fill my days enjoying others scalers and such fo now.. Hopefully the panels that I need will tuck under a greyhound and this way the shipping will be cheaper! stupid one only bodied car.. But I love her.. BTW she is a 223 inline 6 with a single barrel Holey carb, and a 3 spd with overdrive.. Love it to death.. |
