Vehicle Description
''IF YOUR A COLLECTOR THIS IS THE ONE FOR YOU'' Take it to car
shows, cruise main street or go race nostalgia. 1963-1/2 Galaxie
Super Stock Lightweight tribute of the most successful 427 ci 425
HP '63 Ford Galaxie ever built for drag racing. The original car
stacked up 65 wins and set 22 track records during the 1963 racing
season and was also the first Ford in history to hold an NHRA
record in Super Stock Class, which was set at the famous York US 30
Dragway on July 12, 1963. The car was driven by Dick Brannan, an
original member of the elite "Ford Drag Team" which was sponsored
by Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, Michigan. Dick campaigned the
car nationwide and it wasn't long until it was known as the
"Fastest Ford Alive" over the entire country. Most competitors
said: "I just couldn't keep up with that high gear!" The original
car has been fully restored and is in a museum in the N.E. This is
#1 of 1 of the exact car. Correctly restored using correct
Lightweight parts including the complete front end, deck lid, and
bumpers. The original "X" code car used for restoration was solid
and rust free. It retains all of its original floors, trunk,
rockers, and quarter panels. Very Straight car with excellent body
fitment throughout. The car was professionally painted in correct
"Corinthian White", all lettering painted by hand. All of the
exterior chrome and stainless are in very good shape. Powered by a
427 FE Big block 425H.P. side oiler. It has a correct Ford dual 4
barrel intake with twin 600CFM Holley Carbs. Exhaust exits through
Custom tuned headers with cut outs if you want to get loud. The
balance of the exhaust is dual with H pipe and factory style
mufflers. Sounds mean and runs extremely crisp and clean. TONS of
power. Engine backed by a race clutch and toploader 4 speed with
4.30 Posi Traction gear out back. Rolls on original Ford wheels,
all chromed, and the rears widened. NOS M&H Racemaster Cheater
slicks were sourced out back and ne BFG reproduction tires
