Vehicle Description
Cool Classic Rides, Dealer #DA8690 is excited to offer another
classic with this absolutely beautiful 1966 Ford Galaxie 7 litre
Convertible. Anybody who knows the history of the 7 litre, knows
what a rare car this is. Ford made only 2,368 of these very rare
convertibles. Today less than 50 are known to still be around. This
was fords answer to the mid sized muscle car craze, of the mid 60s.
The 428 V8 big block was stuffed tightly into the engine bay of
this family 2 door sedan, and put out a very respectable 345 HP at
4500 RPM. These cars in 1966 were badged on the front fender, grill
and glove box, as a 7 LItre. This was the mid 1960s, when it was
all about the muscle and power of the big 3 auto makers, and Ford
nailed it with its 7 litre. These are some of the absolute rarest
fords ever built, and especially in a convertible. This beautiful
car was purchased in 100% original condition, with roughly 64,000
original miles on it. This muscle car icon, had spent its entire
life in California, from day one. We still have the original black
and gold license plates that came on it. This beauty had very sun
baked original paint, all original interior in near perfect
condition including factory 7 Litre bucket seats, and a center
console, for its ever cool t shift automatic, and all of its
original wiring, wheels, brakes and Hub Caps. Not one single piece
of trim inside or out, and not one badge was missing. We purchased
this car with zero rust. This is a 100% number matching car. The
engine was checked out and refreshed, and runs and drives
perfectly. The original interior was taken out, reconditioned and
put back in, like the day it was new. We put in new factory correct
carpet, and new factory correct top, all new top motor, and
pistons. The kelsey- hayes brakes were completely gone thru and
rebuilt, back to original, right down to the hoses and 4 piston
calipers. We Gave this beautiful machine , new white stripe tires,
had the undercarriage completely painted, and had every gauge, and
light gone thru and made to work perfectly. We sent our rag top
beast, out to have new base coat, clear coat, factory correct paint
re applied, and new 7 litre pin striping reapplied. We have gone
thru every part of this beautiful machine, in a 9 month restoration
process. No this is not a rotisserie restoration,nor is it a frame
off restoration, for the simple fact that this car was near
perfect, the day we got it. We have pictures going back to the day
we found it, to show its over all condition. This was truly one of
the nicest preserved car we have ever had. We did not repaint the
door jambs, under the hood, or under the trunk lid, simply to show
its original , and amazing condition. The interior of the trunk
looks like new, still having its original cardboard wheel well
blockers. Like all of our cars, this is not a high end frame off
Show car. This is a very nicely done , very low original mileage,
and very rare daily driver, that is ready to take proudly to any
cruise inn or local show. Believe me you will have the only 7 Lire
there. The paint has 4 coats of clear, and is ready for her new
owner to spend a weekend wet sanding and buffing, to bring out its
amazing metallic sparkle to it s fullest. Cool Classic Rides , is
very proud of this beautiful car, and we believe we have priced it
very reasonable at $39,500.00 There is not a single thing on this
amazing family muscle car, that does not work properly, as far as
we have seen. It goes down the road with a great ease, and a style
that is unsurpassed. This is a highly collectable car, in a very
fast growing collector market. This car will never go down in value
, but will continue to go up and up. Don't wait, you wont get
another chance to own a piece of automotive history, that looks
this nice, for this price. They just don't come along very often.
