'63 Galaxie Post Sedan, G-Code 406-6bbl

[tom406]

Looks like a pretty honest car. Gateway hasn’t done any work to show casting numbers on the heads or block to prove they’re 406 pieces. If the transmission is a Toploader (common upgrade) that would be a ‘64 transmission as all ‘63’s were fitted with T10s (although I’ve seen factory materials saying that the 3sp/OD was available with the 406-I don’t think I’ve seen one in person). Galaxie 500 post sedans are unusual-the non-hardtop roofline is usually seen in Custom 300 or Galaxie trim (easily identified by NO side trim, and a single lower side spear of side trim, respectively).
