1967 Ford Galaxie V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

When driving my car will only get up to maybe 10 mph. I would like to know if it could be my carburetor or maybe my timing belt. if it's my belt could you let me know how to set it.

kBig fords have timing chains not belts. Put a timing light and see if it is ok, then a vacuum guage, that will tell if you have a blocked exaust or actually if the car needs a tune up.
