I seem to recall the light weight Fairlanes did but I can't remember the Galaxies.
One of the kids in my high school auto shop class had a new 64 just like that, it was a dark maroon color and he blew the engine before the year was over  :005:.

     That's real cool.   Too bad that he didn't store it properly back then.   If I had it, I would replace the rotted panels and keep the patina on the rest of it.
