My parents had one of these is yellow with the bench seats and the 429 just like your video and no air conditioning. For a big car it would really haul it. I believe it had a 9 inch rear end.

No, you didn’t. The final year for the XL was 1970. There were LTDs and Galaxie 500s in 1971, it no XLs.

Kevin, if it was a 1971 model, it was not an XL, or a Galaxy XL, or a Galaxie XL. The Galaxie 500 XL was introduced for the 1962 model year and ran through 1966. For 1967 through 1970 the XL was a standalone nameplate. The 1971 models saw the lineup reduced to Galaxie and LTD models, with no XL model at all. Your car may have been a 1971 Galaxie 500 with a 351, but it simply could not have been an XL. My first car was a 1969 XL with a 390. I have been following these cars for 50 years and I know what I speak of. BTW, the proper spelling is “Galaxie”. Ford uses the spelling “Galaxy” on a minivan that it sells in European markets.

@@roymcgaw7431 The guy that sold it to me said it was a '71 but now that I think about it with the pneumatic headlights and black fastback roof and dark green body was likely an earlier model but the motor was pulled for a 351 and the ball joints were awful too, they were riveted in and eventually the frame rotted out; I junked it.

A beautiful Ford. Mustangs, Torinos or Cougars were not the only nice looking cars from FoMoCo of that era.. There are plenty of them in the shadows. I would buy this car in a blink of an eye if i had the $$$$..

With a bench seat??!!! I've never seen one with a bench seat before, and since I started getting parts for it in 1977, I've never come across one. I have seen a Galaxie fastback 429 with a bench seat, but never an XL (in ’9 and '70 the XL was an actual model, not a trim package, so they're NOT technically Galaxies those 2 years). The one I own was bought new by my parents, and it's been my passion since I was a kid. Bucket seats, console and horseshoe shift.

Cobra Jet was not available on these big cars. They could have the 429 Thunderjet which was a tamer 4 bbl 429/360.

No, not available in the XL. The best you could get was the 4V Thunderjet engine.
