Vehicle Description
This 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 convertible is a cool-looking drop-top
classic that also was born with a mean/big V8 under the hood. It
makes for a true cruiser with plenty of power to get you down the
road.
The Galaxie 500 is a premium full-size Ford. So this one loves to
show off its size and style with the wave-like grille, sweeping
full-length side trim, afterburner-style taillights, and wraparound
chrome bumpers. And there are the right touches of vintage
elegance, like the white convertible top and correct wire wheel
covers. Plus, the factory-correct Wimbledon White paint has a
tasteful creamy style and a nice gloss from a respray later in
life. It makes for a car that has the sharp-looking style of a
classic that wants to be recognized for its vintage appeal.
With the flip of a switch, the roof powers down. And the
factory-correct red interior has such a cool look against the white
exterior that you know this one was ordered by someone with an eye
for style. Plus, the upgrade to the velour inserts in the seats
tells you someone wanted to make this more comfortable for you to
hop in when the top is down. So it really is a full-size classic
that's easy to share with family and friends. And if they love
vintage style, they will be impressed by the intricate style of the
door panels, carpeting, and dash. You may use the value price for
some detail updates/upgrades, but there's already something quite
cool about a car so well preserved that the AM radio is even still
cranking out tunes.
This was born a P-code car with the big 390 V8 under the hood, and
it's believed that this one still carried that large displacement
today. Topped with a four-barrel carburetor, this is a terrific
powerhouse that loves to fire up with gusto. As a true cruising
classic, the V8 idles nicely, and you'll appreciate the control of
the smooth column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. Add in
power steering, power brakes, and modern Hankook tires, and this
open cruises comfortably and confidently down the road.
Big, premium, and absolutely fun - this Galaxie 500 convertible
knows how to deliver the best in driving nostalgia. So at a price
like this, you know this deal will be moving quickly. Call now!
