Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this stunning, very
rare and extremely fast 1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie 500 fastback.
HISTORY
The 1963 model was essentially unchanged save for some freshening
and added trim; windshields were reshaped and a four-door hardtop
500/XL was added. A lower, fastback roofline was added mid-year to
improve looks and make the big cars more competitive on the NASCAR
tracks with the added downforce. This 1963� model, the industry's
first official "� year" model, was called the "sports hardtop" or
"fastback" (it shared this feature with the for 1963� Falcon).
Galaxie buyers showed their preference as the new sports hardtop
models handily outsold the "boxtop" square-roof models. The sports
hardtop was available in both Galaxie 500, and Galaxie 500/XL trim.
Mercury also received the new roofline (under the Marauder badge)
in Monterey, Montclair, and Park Lane models. This year, a
no-frills big Ford, priced around $100.00 below the base Galaxie
sedans. was offered, badged as the Ford 300. It was offered for
1963 only, and was replaced by the Custom series in 1964. The
"Swing-away" steering wheel became optional. SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA
