This 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 is one of the most interesting classics
you can get your hands on right now. Not only do you get the
awesome look of a pillarless hardtop sedan, but also this V8
cruiser has an interior that expertly mixes vintage elements with
some of the best upgrades (everything from digital gauges to
cold-blowing A/C.) It all makes for a total package classic offered
for quite an affordable price.
Let's start by looking over the outside of this Galaxie. It has all
the great long flowing bodywork you love in these full-size Fords.
And this is even the rare four-door pillarless sedan body. You can
tell there was a more recent investment in making this look nice
just by the gloss of the paint and the big polish on the chrome
king bumpers. And as you get closer, you'll notice details like the
large dual exhaust tips and the Lincoln turbine-style wheels. They
are subtle pieces that fit into the car's overall look, but they do
also hint at this being more than just a factory machine.
Your first impression of the interior may just be about how it has
a classic look but a fresh feeling. You really notice the details,
like the button-top seatbacks, and how the stitching pattern
matches the door inserts. Two rows of wide bench seats make this
full-size sedan ready for family and friends. And they'll be quite
happy to go for a ride. After all, you're not only give them good
fundaments like plush carpeting and a newer headliner, but this one
also has great modern cruiser upgrades. There's an AM/FM/cassette
stereo mounted in a custom floor box for upgraded driving music,
and cold-blowing air conditioning means you can roll down all the
windows on this pillarless hardtop even in the summer. But even
when you're just going solo, this upgraded Galaxie is a lot of fun.
You have unique treats reserved just for you, like when you twist
the key, you'll see a full digital gauge package come to life.
Pop the hood and you'll see that the big engine bay has been
consumed with big V8 power. This is an X-code sedan, so it's great
to see a year-correct 352 cubic-inch V8 with a four-barrel
carburetor on top. You'll especially love to mention that this is a
1966 block when also showing off the authentic look of this V8 's
bold blue presentation and factory-style decals. The freshness of
the fundamental components gives this the look of a solid
investment, and the way this motor runs strong reaffirms this
feeling of proper care. A motor this large has no trouble giving
this full-size Ford some real get-up-and-go, and the H-pipe dual
exhaust has the right tune for a dignified sedan that also has some
power behind it. There's also power steering, a three-speed
automatic transmission, power brakes with updated discs up front,
and wide Firestone Firehawk tires. It all makes for a great classic
designed to make it easy to show off the cool pillarless sedan look
near or far.
A distinct and well-done classic is rarely this obtainable. So you
know you need to hurry on this deal. Call today!!!
