This 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. The Ford Galaxie was a full size car built by Ford from 1959 to 1974. The name was used from 59 to 61 with 62 being the first year with the "500" and "500/XL" denoting the higher series. The restoration of this American iron was done years and the current owner has inherited the car. The car still looks good but does show evidence that it was driven and enjoyed and driven. The unique striping gives the paint an extra pop without being obnoxious. Before we talk about the muscle under the hood, letâ??s talk about the hood. It is a fiberglass hood with a raise tear drop center. The back of the teardrop has a messed opening to allow in as much fresh air as possible. The hood is lighter than a steel hood and used to reduce weight for drag racing. The hood lets people know this Galaxie means business! This 64 is originally a 390 V8 car from the factory, but a little work has been done on the engine and the current owner was told it now displaces 406 cubic inches. Rebuilt and gone through during the restoration process this FE big block will get this piece of American steel moving down the road rather nicely. The 3 speed Cruise-O-Matic transmission is controlled with the floor mounted shifter that will make you take a double. It had us fooled as we thought at first this Galaxie has 4-speed manual. Take a peek inside and you will see an interior that has been tastefully redone. The silver piping accents the black and looks as if it should be there. If you are looking for that week end toy that is a bit different, but still has that classic 60â??s look, then look no further and become the proud owner of this American piece of automotive history. Options on this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 includes; power steering, manual brakes, AM/FM radio with Cassette Player, seat belts, steel wheels with Chrome Baby Moon hub caps shod with radial Tires.
