Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1964 Ford
Galaxie 500.
HISTORY
Model year 1964 was the fourth and final year of this body style.
Interior trim was altered, and the exterior featured a more
sculpted look which was actually designed to make the car more
aerodynamic for NASCAR. The formal-roof "boxtop" style was no
longer available, all non-wagon models now featuring the "fastback"
roof design that was the runaway best-seller in 1963. The base 300
was replaced by a line of Custom and Custom 500 models. The 289
continued as the base V8 and was standard in the XL series. XL
models got new thin-shell bucket seats with chrome trim. Federal
regulations now required lap-style safety belts for both front
outboard occupants. The ignition switch was moved from the left
side of the steering column, to the right, but otherwise the
attractive instrument panel remained unchanged from '63. The 1964
XL two-door hardtop became the best seller of any XL produced in
any year.
The 427 cu in (7.0 l) engine was used in 50 lightweight
fiberglass-equipped cars for drag racing. These competed in North
America but were still too heavy and Ford introduced the
lightweight Fairlane Thunderbolt.
The Ford Country Squire station wagon, while wearing "Country
Squire" badging, was actually part of the Galaxie 500 line. Some
Country Squires had "Galaxie 500" badging on the glovebox
indicating the series name. These station wagons featured the same
trims as Galaxie 500s, and were a step up from the base-model
Country Sedan. SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA
