Actually it happened so much in fact that the KKK had their own hotline which was 555, precursor to 911! What a busy switchboard it was! That's also why unemployment was so low because during that period so many switchboard operators were needed on the KKK Hotline! Do you speak any other language besides hyperbole dear? The mid 20th century was safer across the board and for all people living in the US. Take some time (which I know you won't do) and look at crime stats from local and federal crime archives at the time. Especially FBI records.

Todd Bonin I totally agree, 1966-1968 were my favorite years. Starting in 1969, they acquired that generic boxy look and most full-sized Ford’s looked pretty plain afterwards. We had a sky blue 1967 Custom 500 when I was born up until I was about 4 and grandparents had a gold 1968 LTD.

Parents bought it when we came back to Canada after a military posting to Germany and I remember the family huddles around the brochures spread out on the kitchen table when dad chose the engine (he was a mechanic) and mom chose the paint. I remember Dad being able to fit 2 full sets of golf clubs, and their carts, in the trunk. I also remember tucking away the seatbelts because ‘they got in the way’: That was also a time when both parents smoked and didn’t always crack a window. I still have a little plastic Esso tiger key chain that I bought shortly after we headed out on a trip to visit family from Trenton, Ontario to Edmonton: That little guy hung from the mirror of our family car and some 55 years later, it still dangling from the mirror of my 2019 F150!

Such beautiful cars! I had a street & strip 66 XL Galaxie, burgundy with Cragars, miss that car. Had it 18 years but finance's forced me to sell. Good ol evil money

[@SuperAgentman007]

The 1967 LTD was an excellent car specially during the winter time when you had a pump it about 20 times and hope that you didn’t just flood the car.

[@alanhumphrey4198]

I haven't used the term "it's flooded" in many years...seems like it's been forever since we had cars with carburetors. Born 1955.

[@paulbroderick8438]

Ah, so elegant, so stylish and just so plain beautiful! Now, just a contraption to get one from A to B.

[@bjgandalf69]

My dad had a metallic sand 1967 Ford LTD Galaxy 2 door coupe with a 390 engine that he bought used in Phoenix in 1973 and kept it into the 90's. I always loved how that car looked and drove. He rebuilt the engine in 1976 and it drove like a top with the only problems being a leak in the C4 tranny that meant you had to warm the car up before going forward and issues with rust and the vinyl roof leaking.

Still have my 67 galaxie convertible big block , cold ac decent heat , naw kidding heat sucks! Disk brake , electric bench seat! Lots of crazy stories go along with my ol gal 😂

[@MerleOberon]

1967 has always been one of my favorite years, my first car was a '67 Fairlane 500 convertible, it was interesting to see how advanced cruise control was then, I never knew anyone who had it, now it's a necessity.

[@markmorris3579]

MerleOberon-Mine too.I had a 67 Falcon 2 door with the 200 cu. in.6.Those cars would run forever!

[@larryhawkins3294]

Cruise control was available only on Mustang, Galaxie and Thunderbird in 67. Not available on Falcons and Fairlanes.

[@johnbockelie3899]

Watching ghost cars. Why do we drive sardine cans Now days?

[@mescko]

It was offered as far back as '64 at least. It was an option then on the Galaxie and Parklane/Marauder.

[@Porsche996driver]

My uncle in Pittsburgh had the 4-door version. He put a ton of miles on it, but it literally became unsafe due to extensive rust after 12 years. Still not bad!

[@ibrahimrubeiz4595]

This is when America was great... everything it produced was top class... Even her politicians were great...My late father George, was Chief Mechanic of the Ford dealership in Beirut during that decade and earlier... I grew up playing in Fords ,Mercuries and Lincolns...,,🌷🌷🌷

[@jondstewart]

As much as I like vintage muscle cars like ‘57 Chevy’s, ‘67-69 Camero’s and Chevelle’s, I would be just as happy to own a 1966-1968 full-sized Ford Custom, Galaxie, or LTD that’s in good condition. A total family car, but so much elegance and character! 1969 is when things went downhill and the generic look came around.

I had a '67 XL. White with black vinyl top, red interior. Bucket seats and automatic, console shift. Dang fine looking car. 390 two barrel. Fast enough to get me in trouble. Had the car for 10 years and sold it when I found rust bubbling up where the vinyl top met the rear fender and got spooked.

[@joelbrower6547]

I've owned a 1963 Galaxie 500 XL convertible for the past 41 years. But the 1967 Galaxie was the prettiest of the bunch.

[@bobt5778]

Nice! My friend's 63 Galaxie convertible was the first car I ever drove. Well built, smooth and powerful. I got my license the following year 😂.

[@raneman7415]

Back when cars were quality and cool

[@julesmoto9022]

They certainly weren't quality but they were cool

[@thetreblerebel]

Ford round tail lights are still cool as hell!

[@funbank1]

Thomas Dollard back then you cold tour a ship on the weekends. They also drove through Selva Marina and down 3rd street A1A.

[@lizzapaolia959]

What a fantastic video. Thanks for sharing this, God bless you 🙏

[@k.j.g.9601]

So elegant. I feel like 1967 was the end of civil America. These cars were built with pride and those simple but still elegant, The Whole love peace and hair grease movement that started in 1968 seemed to have killed that era. A shame, especially since I was born in 1968.....

[@ercolepaulcolella58]

A Golden Age now passed. American auto makers made some great stuff, but now, the market looks elsewhere. Great while it lasted.

[@ammomeister]

Those are some big boats/land yacht I used to see growing up!

[@97warlock]

I like watching these.....for the surrounding scenery as much as the cars

[@PedalPusherE9]

My Dad traded just about every year back then. He had a 64, a 65, a 66, and a 1967. Galaxie 500 ..... His 1967 was a 0:16 0:16 turquoise blue with a white top. It had the 390 engine in it. That thing would fly. I have traveled 125 MPH with him in it. He was a mechanic and kept it running in tip-top shape all the time.

[@santiagomercado338]

Muy buen video, me encanta ver como era todo en esos tiempos, principalmente los autos. Lástima que no se escucha el audio, pero de verdad muy buen video, LOS FELICITO ! ! Desde República Dominicana

[@gordonvincent731]

I miss all cars of the '60s. All great looking cars. Cars today all look the same anymore. You don't know what you're looking at unless you saw the emblem. I wish they could build some of these today using todays building technology.

[@CJColvin]

Exactly mate but these modern car lovers will never learn.

[@elmerray22]

I had a 68 ltd hidden headlights 58 thousand 390 4 bbl quiet and smooth i miss taking her on the highway

[@richardroberts7261]

When i started learning how to drive it was moms 1968 XL fastback with hideaway head lights, black vinal roof ,army green color 390 cold ac would spit ice off the metal vents on a hot day ...lol

[@YukonDemon]

Cool cars. Some of the best looking iron to come out of Detroit. I had to laugh at the safety features though. I was in a pretty bad single car accident earlier this week and there is no question that if I had been in one of those beautiful old Fords I would be dead as a door nail right now.

[@markproulx1472]

The cars were just immense.

[@Nunofurdambiznez]

No.. they weren't THAT big.. they got MUCH bigger in the mid-70s.. check out the '73 through '78 Chrysler New Yorkers.. THOSE were immense in the true sense of the word!

[@brianpercival1829]

I was 14 yrs old in 67. Fond memories. I like the hard tops. All the safety, must be the safest car on the planet. Oh, wait, Volvo, never mind. Clock was pre-broken when installed.

[@dannysunwantedopinions]

Way back when things mattered and people cared.

[@robertwalker2052]

Preach!

I’m here cause I have a 67 Tbird I’m glad I got this recommend 🙂

[@jeffwagner7007]

It's nice to see that somebody else has a 67 T-Bird like mine! My parents bought the car new they gave it to me in high School still in my garage.
