For Sale: 1961 Ford Galaxie in Lithia Springs, Georgia

Vehicle Description

This 1961 Ford Galaxie Starliner has a cool all red look and an awesome hardtop profile. But what really makes it irresistible is the tri-power V8 under the hood and your total control with four-on-the-floor.

Starliners are truly a special form of the full-size Fords. They have a sleek roofline and pillarless hardtop profile. Not only is this attractive, but it was also rarer than the convertible in '61. Because this is so special, the coupe is boldly finished in a glossy Monte Carlo Red. Plus, there's a distinct white that draws extra attention to the seductive thin roof pillars and sporty pillarless hardtop profile. You can see the care that went into keeping this premium Ford nice. Details like the full-length trim, fender-mounted ornaments, the 390 checkered flag badges, ornate grille, and jet-inspired taillights mean that nobody will mistake this for anything but an upper-class Ford. Everything is clean and complete, with an overall style that never wants to make you afraid of driving this one. That's why they even upgraded you to better tires mounted to classic Cragar SS wheels.

The interior is done with an eye for care and style. The vibrant red returns inside, and just like the exterior, there's even a hint of white. The seats look and feel excellent, and so it makes this full-size coupe quite inviting. In fact, all the fundamentals have a quality look. And because this Starliner's rear glass really puts the rear shelf on display, they finished it off in an attractive tuck and roll pattern. This goes for a very classic style, right down to the working AM radio. But as a true driver's classic, you'll also appreciate the tingle you get from resting your right hand on the stick shift, and your left one griping the upgraded sports steering wheel.

Pop the hood and you'll see that callouts on the fenders were not lying. The big 390 cubic-inch motor filling the engine bay was one of the largest of the era, and this has some added polish for you to show off. The long air topper is over the triple set of dual-barrel carbs that make up the impressive tri-power setup. And this gives you the best control over this big power V8 with the four-speed manual transmission. The shifting action is smooth and confident to make you want to hit the road. That's why there's also power steering, power brakes, and upgraded front discs.

This is the cool and rare Galaxie Starliner that makes a powerful statement with its look and muscle. Don't let it slip away, call today!
