For Sale: 1964 Ford Galaxie in Mesa, Arizona

When it comes to finding a truly collectible car, it is hard to beat a car like this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500XL Convertible. The Galaxie was offered as the ultimate iteration of Ford's Fairlane lineup, and its second generation brought about styling changes and introduced the 76B XL trim for the 1962 model year. Decked out in a full repaint of its original Vintage Burgundy, complemented by its white power convertible top, looks good up or down. This second-gen drop-top epitomizes the cool cruising style of the early 1960s.

Inside, we find a clean and light white vinyl interior. A center console separates a pair of bucket seats, while a three-spoke, power-assisted steering wheel sits in front of a set of chrome knobs and a white-faced 120 mph horizontal speedometer. A set of auxiliary AutoMeter Pro-Comp gauges sits just ahead of a floor-mounted shifter, while an AM radio adds classic style.

Under the hood, we find a naturally aspirated 427 cubic-inch Side Oiler V-8 engine. Featuring lightweight Edelbrock aluminum heads, a dual-quad Holley four-barrel setup mounted to a Ford aluminum intake, spent gases are expelled via a sweet-sounding FlowMaster dual exhaust. That power is funneled through a tried-and-true T-10 four-speed manual transmission before being sent out to the nine-inch rear end, which transfers those ponies to the pavement via fourteen-inch wheels shod in Cooper tires.
