Awesome car!
I love a good land yacht. Ours (66 Galaxie Vert in yellow) is a ton of fun to cruise around in on warm spring nights. I need to get some stuff fixed on it though. Good buy!

Duals were an option, mine has them. The manifolds are unique though due to the steering location. The manifold kicks up at the back to clear the steering gear.
Here's one for sale: http://thorntonmusclecars.com/products/manifolds/1965-1970-starfire-dual-exhaust-manifolds
It isn't necessary, but if you had them factory it is nice to have. I've got a pair of huge 3-chamber mufflers on mine. It isn't loud, but it does have a nice burble like an inboard V8 boat engine.
The beast getting new brakes and alignment...car does not have disc brakes up front, bummer....will do a disk brake conversion later...

The guy I sold my blue 88 to is urging me to keep it stock or at least use OEM parts...
But, this guy has got me thinking dirty thoughts...(I hope I posted these videos correctly!)
I bet he has disk brakes up front!
