HOW RARE IS IT?
Few recall Ford even built a full-size 4-door hardtop fastback. These post-less Galaxies are now nearly extinct; most enthusiasts say, Ive never seen one. A search will turn up only a handful nationwide. To the best of my knowledge, this is the finest big-block 390 V8 4-barrel Galaxie 500XL Town Victoria Sport Roof currently available in North America.
