Luv the Ford Galaxie.. really enjoyed the video... What a mission .. never a dull moment with the galaxie. Glad to see you found a good unit in the end keeping it safe and sound.
I really felt for you with that first lockup, I knew there wasn't enough swing room to get that Galaxie round, lucky the guy had another unit vacant. All safe and sound now though... Take care, Jon B.
Back in the day a big car in Britain was Triumph 2000 size! A Ford Galaxy was massive in comparison. I remember back in the early 70's Engelbert Humperdink getting his big American vehicle stuck on the spiral ramp in Lee Circle multi storey Carpark in the city of Leicester.
Just noticed the glass fuel filter under the bonnet, it really needs swapping for a plastic or metal one. The glass ones can leak or crack and cause a fire, I know of three cars that have been damaged or destroyed because of the glass filters
Remy loves his Galaxie and Betty does seem to motor along. Betty is definitely a Land Yacht, she just floats along. That took some doing and skilfully parked. It is a decent sized unit.
Wouldn't be so bad if that hedge wasn't in the way. I had to laugh at you both (sorry Remi!), and Alex's commentary on the proceedings. Even with more space it wasn't easy was it? Bigger space in there than I expected though, and it looks like you have power in there, but it didn't look near to home so might be more difficult to work on regularly.
I would have thought this Ford Galaxie was made for the Australian market. Poor Betty does need lots of work; then again, poor Betty is 63, she qualifies for Social Security here in the US.
Any other units left for hire I have a Vauxhall Astra Bertone convertible.. How far away and roughly what kind of weekly rent is it please,my car is based in Wickwar..
There is normally a long waiting list for units to come available. I put my name down around Christmas time and got a phone call last month saying one is empty. His rule is if you don't pick up the phone first time he calls the next on his list. I was lucky a few people didn't pick up the phone to him.
