In the world of revving engines and burning rubber, car guys are known for breaking parts, not hearts. These grease-stained heroes are more likely to be found under a hood than under the mistletoe. With hands as skilled as their wit is sharp, they navigate the treacherous terrain of relationships with the same finesse as a tight corner. While they might forget an anniversary, they’ll never forget their torque specs. So, buckle up for a ride with someone who’ll never leave you stranded—well, except when they’re chasing that elusive horsepower.
The Ford Galaxie was a full-sized marvel from 1959 to 1961, showcasing a blend of chrome and innovation with features like the impressive retractable hardtop and a power-packed 352 cu in V8 engine. By 1960, the Galaxie shed its flashy ornaments for a sleeker look, introducing the Starliner—a pillarless hardtop coupé with a grand rear window. While the Starliner was short-lived, the Galaxie continued to delight with its powerful 390 CDI V8 engine, proving that even heavyweight classics can move with gusto!
