Can anybody help me? FORD GALAXIE

[mungbeetle]

Hi i have reciently joined the ford forums site to see if anybody is able to help me with some knowledge and history.

Well i have a 1972 Ford Galaxie, the strange thing is that it is apparently a ex-government/ministerial car, reason i ask is because of specific things on the car like on the bonnet there is a australian flag on a pole that can be attached and removed and there is reading lights in the car like chrome snake lights so to speak, from what i have been told is that the vehicle was bought into Auistralia from America by the Government and then was sold to a vietnam veterian and then sold to me making me the third owner of it. And from what i can find on the internet is that there is no others like this in australia, there is same year and model but none with the Government side of things on them. any information would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers Dave.
