Two recently listed on BaT. Didn't think $40k would do it for the Fairlane. Not sure what to say about the $126k for the Galaxie

Re: Recently on BaT
Id take the yellow one(dislike yellow!) all day before I'd walk across the street for that 64(late 63maybe). Stock so the Galaxie will sit and gather dust in a collection,,,,,,

Re: Recently on BaT
I have always preferred the 63.5 galaxie over the 64. Sharper lines, but R code galaxie's have been $80-90,000 for years. Just shows how inflation is hitting everywhere.
1965 Mercury Cyclone former drag car, 1971 Boss 351 engine, 4 speed, ladder bars, etc. Now returned to a street car.

Re: Recently on BaT
Needed new floor pans, interior, quarter panel repair behind wheel well on driver side. Spark plugs were pulled.
Complete car w/ buckets & console. Asking price + restoration cost was more than it was valued @ the time.
Maybe I should have bought it. Prices are up almost 100% over last year
