All-Ford Carlisle

We were out at Carlisle this past weekend for the All-Ford show. A little disappointing because of the all-day rain on Saturday. Lots of cars but I found a couple very nice '67s. Since I'm a fan of the '67s and am in the process of cleaning up my engine compartment, I took a few pics of the cool Galaxies as well as some pics of older Galaxies for ideas for new wheels. Looking forward to getting rid of my hubcaps.

Thanks for posting those pictures from Carlisle - you helped me out a lot. I have the add-on a/c on my '67, but it is missing the idler pulley for the a/c belt. I found a pulley on eBay but there is no where to mount it. From your pics, I see the bracket I need, bolted to the compressor.

Might I suggest American Racing Torq Thrust D or 200s wheels? They almost seem to be too popular (I've seen lots of the D's), but they look great. There is a nice '67 with the 200s wheels at the 1967 Ford full-size registry.

The Torq Thrust D's are on this car

Glad the pics helped out! I wish my engine compartment looked like the vehicles I took pics of.

As for wheels...the Torq Thrust wheels I agree are almost too popular, but it is a classic musclecar look, which is what I'm going for. However, I have been eyeing the American Racing Stics 625:

Still that 5-spoke pattern, but a little different. Regardless of which wheel, I'd definitely have to go with the raised white lettering on the tires.
