35cz8 38 Posted January 7 Thank you Matt for this great information. I am finally in a position to spend some money on my cars and the Galaxie is now in a private shop to get started on it. I really appreciate the help I get from people like you in the clubs and hope I can pass on the help I have received. Thanks again 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

35cz8 38 Posted July 8 Thanks Tom, for the information and link, there is indeed a lot of great info on this site. I am having my '83 XL convertible restored and it has a lot of optional equipment on it and I want to make sure they are all factory options. I really appreciate the help from everyone that responded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
