4620-TPA 1965 FORD GALAXIE 500XL CONVERTIBLE

This 1965 Ford Galaxie 500XL Convertible, wrapped in a delightful Springtime Yellow, stands out as a timeless piece of classic American motoring. The Galaxie's exterior is a showcase of 60s charm, with a sleek convertible body that is both elegant and spirited. Its vibrant color is complemented by a set of 15-inch Cragar wheels, wrapped in 225/70R15 tires, offering a balanced mix of classic style and modern performance. The black power top operates smoothly and fits snugly, adding a layer of versatility to this classic beauty. Chrome bumpers and trim shine with a subtle patina, enhancing the car's nostalgic appeal without overshadowing its overall luster. The clean lines and solid construction of the Galaxie are a true reflection of Ford's engineering prowess of the era.

Inside, the 1965 Galaxie 500XL Convertible continues to impress with its black vinyl interior that provides a striking contrast to the exterior. The bucket seats are comfortable and supportive, perfect for long drives or quick spins around town. A floor-mounted shifter housed within the center console adds a sporty touch to the interior's functional layout. The dashboard is adorned with clear gauges and a classic AM radio, with additional under-dash SunPro gauges for temperature, voltage, and oil pressure. The clean faux wood trim on the lower dash and well-maintained chrome accents give the cabin a touch of understated elegance. Factory mats and a spacious trunk, complete with a spare tire.

Powering this iconic convertible is a robust 390 V8 engine, paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission, promising reliable performance and smooth gear shifts. The Brawler single 4-barrel carburetor enhances fuel delivery, ensuring the engine runs efficiently. Power steering and power drum brakes at all four corners make driving this classic a pleasure, with easy handling and confident stopping power. The dual exhaust system adds a mellow, throaty growl that perfectly suits the Galaxie's character.
