Early 70's I owned a 1966 Galaxy 500 390 2 door and speaking of Fairlane I also back then owned a ultra rare1970 1/2 Fairlane Falcon with a 351 Cleveland,
How many saws could you fit in that trunk Mike?Both nice cars you had there. I almost bought a 66 Galaxy 7 liter 4 speed (428 motor with dealer installed 3 duce), but I didn't think it ran real strong. Realized later that is because that year still used the 390 heads, my brother's 69 Talladega, with the rear 428 SCJ was much stronger.
The 351 Cleveland's really came on nice in the high RPM zone.
I think if I ever built a classic Ford, other than the Mustang, I would choose a 66/67 Fairlane. Light, pretty, and lots more room than a Mustang!
Maybe I'm just a tard but I honestly didn't think this thread was that bad. I've seen it go way worse on Another Site. Side note how do you like your brave? Been liking mine.
My Informations are that Stihl replacing the 362 with the 400.Helpful if we can keep it on topic: is STIHL replacing some saws in their line up?
Lots of other threads out there for other topics.

All of them, even a few 166s.
I think you can stack two rows high though!I have 20 runners at the moment, can't fit them all in the Mustang, and they would not all fit in the Fairlane either. In fact, I don't know if the Fairlane rear seats fold down like in the Mustang. That really helps out with long bar saws!
I think 14 is the most I've put in the Mustang so far, but I also had Fuel + Oil, a Peavey and the X 27, and the front passenger seat was still available.

I would say that's a pretty safe bet.Does that mean we will see the 400, 462 and 500 in the States in 2019?
I would say that's a pretty safe bet.
