Vehicle Description
1959 Ford GALAXIE 500 2 DOOR HARDTOP
We just acquired this car from the widow of a true car guy and
enthusiast who loved his cars. She said he spent hours
working,detailing and just admiring this beautiful iconic car. He
took it everywhere including the grocery store and church on
Sunday's as well as to local and not so local car shows and events.
It truly was his 2nd love and it shows.CHECK IT OUT !!
The body is mostly original with the exception of lower 1/4 patch
panels that appears to have been professionally installed and done.
The body is extremely straight,solid and clean and the 2 stage
''RAVEN BLACK'' paint was just buffed to a deep luster and
brilliant shine !! All of the glass, chrome & trim are original and
still in beautiful condition. The interior is in ''LIKE NEW''
condition including the headliner, carpets, door panels etc.. VERY
NICE !!
It is powered by a correct and what we believe to be original 312
c.i. V-8 engine that runs smooth and strong!! It is backed by a 2
speed FORD-O-MATIC automatic transmission. This car runs and drives
really nice and is extremely smooth riding. We just replaced the
tires with white wall radials and rebuilt the carb as well as fully
serviced the car with a fresh oil change, new spark plugs and
tune-up so she is ready to hit the road!
Features include new dual exhaust system, 14'' chrome reverse
wheels with baby moon center caps,original AM radio and a very rare
and unusual option called ''HIGH-WAY HI-FI'' 45 RPM RECORD PLAYER!
This option was offered in Chrysler products back in the day but
lots of guys installed it in their rides too. The widow told us she
was ''CROONED'' by her husband while they were dating with that
record player !! HOW COOL IS THAT !! We turned it on and it seems
to spin but are not 100 % sure just how it works.
These things are a little before my time.
If you are in the market for beautiful iconic car then you really
need to check this one out !! They are becoming harder and harder
to find especially in this ''road ready'' and original condition !!
DON'T MISS IT !!
