For Sale: 1964 Ford Galaxie in Concord, North Carolina

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!
