Gateway Classic Cars Houston showroom is proud to offer this
gorgeous metallic ruby 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 for sale. Bathed in a
lustrous, glowing House of Kolors red that seems to change colors
from every angle, it literally looks like a metallic ruby when
viewed in the sunlight. The exterior chrome trim around the windows
is in excellent shape, and the rest of the chrome trim looks good,
too. Open the hood, and you'll note that the engine bay is finished
in the same red and is loaded with chrome. From the hood hinges, to
the radiator reservoir, alternator, power brake booster and master
cylinder, valve covers and air cleaner, this baby sparkles. The big
390 CID V8 lurks menacingly in its lair - fitted with coated Hedman
headers and topped with an aluminum Edelbrock manifold and
Edelbrock 4BBL carb, you know this is no mild grocery getter's
mill. With only about 2000 miles on the engine since it was
rebuilt, it's barely broken in. Backed by a Ford 3-speed automatic
that sends the power to the 3.05:1 gearset in the Ford 9-inch rear,
this is one sturdy and potent drivetrain. A massive aluminum
radiator with twin electric pusher fans (aided by the factory fan)
helps keep the big block cool while you're motoring around town.
Moving to the inside, you'll notice the Vintage Ford-logoed AC, and
some cool custom touches, like custom Mother of Pearl steering
wheel and the Oyster shell-topped switchgear on the dash and
radio's control knobs. A Sunpro gauge pack helps the driver monitor
the powertrain's vitals, with the rest of the factory gauges
intact, as well. The sweet champagne beige and oyster-colored
synthetic leather seating is in great shape, and the carpet looks
brand new. Settle into the driver's seat, fire it up, and listen to
the baritone burble of the big 390 as it settles into a lopey idle,
sending its exhaust out the big dual exhaust, its DynoMax mufflers
both quieting and enhancing the muscle car sound. Pull the gear
lever into drive and rumble off to your next horizon. If, during
your motoring escapade you should choose to see what this baby will
do, the power brakes have the added benefit of discs up front,
complete with drilled rotors; so stopping happens much more quickly
than it ever could've with the original brake setup. The aluminum
American Racing 5-spoke wheels provide additional good looks, and
better airflow to the brakes, too. Additional options on this 1963
Ford Galaxie 500 for sale include Air Conditioning, Aluminum Alloy
wheels, AM Radio, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Radial Tires, Seat
Belts, and Synthetic Leather seating. For more information on this
