Vehicle Description
Ohio Corvettes and Muscle Cars is pleased to offer this 1962 Ford
Galaxie 500 XL for sale. This car has just arrived and we wanted to
get it on line...it's so cool we couldn't wait. This is a 3 owner
car that was sold new in Pennsylvania and has been well taken care
of ever since. The condition of this car is outstanding. It shows
all the signs of being a cared for survivor (with 1 repaint 14
years ago). We believe the 56049 miles to be original and there is
no visible evidence that would contradict that. And the title
states the mileage as actual. It is powered by Ford's big block 352
engine with 2 bbl carb that offers 220 horsepower and a
Ford-O-Matic 3 speed automatic transmission. For those of you who
are out of the Ford Galaxie loop the XL was the top of the line
Ford offered in 1962. It came in both Hardtop and convertible
configurations and was standard with bucket seats and floor console
shifter (either automatic or standard). The interior was also an
upgrade from the standard Galaxie 500 interior offering a different
configuration of the door panels seat trim and style chrome accents
everywhere and lighting that wasn't available on the standard
Galaxie 500. This car comes equipped with power steering clock
(working) factory original AM radio (also working) and power
convertible top (also working as it was intended). The recent work
on the car includes new brakes including wheel cylinders and a
rebuilt master cylinder new tires about 900 miles ago and new
window to top rubber. Also a new battery was added in the spring of
2019. This car runs and drives excellently...the suspension is
tight as is the steering. Braking is as you would expect after
being all new. The engine purrs like a kitten...no smoke or weird
noises and the transmission shifts smoothly. There are no rust
issues...frame is solid...floor pans have no issues and the
quarters and fenders have no rust visible from underneath. This car
has been driven and enjoyed so the undercarriage is not real pretty
but rust is NOT a problem. This is a great cruiser...one of those
"hop in and drive anywhere" cars. If you're into enjoying your
classic car then give this beauty a look see. This might just be
the car for you. Ohio Corvettes and Muscle Cars6788 Whipple Ave NW
