I think that information about the Galaxie for 1967 must be wrong. My dad had one, and it definitely said Galaxie on it - "Galaxie 500" (unless that is a different car, but I don't think so). 70.49.241.155

I think the article refers only to the former "Galaxie 500 7 Litre" as no longer carrying the Galaxie name in '67. However, I've never heard of or seen this 7 Liter model designation, so I'm going to be skeptical until a picture or a solid source for it turns up.

 Believe me they ("7 liter") exist. I've seen several of them in the Los Angeles area,usually hanging around gas stations.76.166.245.241 (talk) 15:12, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

1963 1/2 ford galaxie fastback

Why are they refered to as a 1963 "1/2"? And was it just the change in the top that made the difference? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.255.29.38 (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As I understand it the body shape (rear window) changed half way through the year. The reason for this was that the early shape, known as box tops were not doing well at NASCAR races. By making the fastback the aerodynamics improved considerably and the racing results improved. So the fastback is the 63 1/2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.69.225.32 (talk) 14:02, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie

Will a 1964 Ford Galaxie four door windshield fit into a 1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie 500 XL two door?--Mollyandelvis (talk) 03:06, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1968 Galaxie moved to Third Generation

I moved the 1968 model from the Fourth generation to the Third generation heading. The 1968 is identical to the 1967 in chassis, engine, transmission, and all sheet metal behind the windshield. Even the windshield itself is the same. The principle differences are the grill and the side-by-side headlights. The Fourth generation is a completely new car. (I own a 1966, a 1967, and two 1968 Galaxie's).(LowET (talk) 14:33, 28 December 2009 (UTC))[reply]
