Vehicle Description
4436-TPA 1965 FORD GALAXIE 500
The 1965 Ford Galaxie 500, a one-owner marvel that's as much a
piece of history as it is a car. Dressed in its professionally
resprayed Prairie Bronze, this Galaxie is more than just a car;
it's a tangible piece of Ford's 1960s NASCAR legacy. The sleek
two-door design is a nod to an era where cars weren't just modes of
transport, but statements of style and speed. The gleaming Prairie
Bronze paint is complemented by the original factory emblems and
chrome bumpers, all sitting on proud 15" wheels with 235/70R15
tires. This is a one-owner legend, ready to relive its glory
days.
Opening the doors of this Galaxie 500 is like opening a book of
automotive history. The interior, redone in vinyl, still whispers
the stories of its original Palomino and Medium Palomino Fabric &
Vinyl design. The dash, a testament to the car's well-preserved
nature, holds the original gauges, all overseen by a steering wheel
and column that have witnessed the passing of decades. Manual
window cranks and door locks add to the authenticity of the
experience. The split bench seat in the front and the rear bench
seat aren't just places to sit; they're invitations to a bygone era
of automotive elegance.
Underneath the hood of this Galaxie - a believed original 390 V8
engine, a powerhouse that's seen the world change around it. Paired
with its numbers-matching 4-speed manual Top loader transmission,
this setup is as genuine as it gets. The 4-barrel Holly Carburetor,
manual four-wheel drum brakes, and steering, combined with a
standard belt-driven cooling fan and radiator, all contribute to a
driving experience that's not just about getting from A to B, but
about feeling every bit of the road and its history.
