Red paint over a long fastback body always hits right, but when
it's laid across a 1965 Ford Galaxie 500 Restomod sitting on 18"
and 20" Ridler wheels with a forward rake, it starts getting
serious. The stance is backed by 245/40ZR18 front and 275/35ZR20
rear ZR-rated tires. Chrome trim runs clean from the grille to the
rear bumper, matching the shine on the door handles and headlight
bezels. The fuel filler has been smoothed, and the proportions hold
steady all the way through.
Red carries inside, laid over vinyl bucket seats and matching
panels that run door-to-door with clean uniformity. The dash
presents just as bold, with gauges that stay legible and a tach
mounted on the column. Auxiliary readouts tuck neatly under the
dash. Air conditioning and power steering are both equipped. A
white headliner breaks up the red while tying in the visors.
Seatbelts are present at all corners. Even the trunk is finished
and tidy with sound deadener applied and extras stashed
cleanly.
A 390 V8 with the C6ME-A casting handles the heavy lifting,
upgraded with electronic fuel injection for better drivability. A
4-speed Toploader manual keeps it hands-on. Intake duties run
through an aluminum manifold, and long tube headers route exhaust
through dual FlowMasters. Front and rear disc brakes are upgraded
with drilled and slotted rotors. RideTech shocks manage suspension,
and air bags inside the rear coils keep things level. Radiator
support, firewall, and bay hardware all present clean and solid.
Cooling is handled with a belt-driven fan.
