1962 Ford Galaxie 500 $26,900 OBO – Dunlap, TN
At first glance this 1962 Galaxie 500 looks like just a beautiful
frame off restoration on a Galaxie 500 instead of an awesome
sleeper, but the closer you look the more rare this car becomes
from its G-code VIN # to its rare hood ornament. With the exception
of the under dash gages, the car looks original with its Ford
factory door mirrors, stainless window vent trim, wire spoke
hubcaps, and all of its correct badging in place.
The interior is very nice and the dash and dash trim are
exceptional. The factory AM radio is still in place and it works as
does turn signals, back up lights and other functions.
The exterior shows off beautiful straight sheet metal with even
body gaps and slick glossy paint. All brite work from bumpers to
every other piece of trim is as new. All glass is tinted and
excellent. The trunk is new and original with factory trunk mat,
spare, and jack in place. The engine compartment is highly detailed
and looks as new as the rest of the car.
The car came from the factory with a 406 CI, 405 HP with a 3x2
carburetor set up and a 4 speed Borg-Warner transmission. The car
now has a 428 CI Cobra jet engine with the correct cast iron
exhaust manifolds and a top loader 4-speed transmission, both of
which came from a 1968 Mustang donor car.
The way the car is now set up makes it a better driver, The
engine and drive train was rebuilt new upon restoration of the car.
The engine runs strong and smooth. Transmission, 3.55 gear ratio,
and rear end are good without issues. Brakes are factory 4 wheel
drum; steering and suspension are factory and all in very good
condition.
