Our Detroit Showroom is proud to offer a very unique and super rare
1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie 500 "R-Code" that came to us right out of a
private Ford collection. For those of you that don't speak Ford
lingo, R-code is Fordspeak for the division's racing motor: the
famous 427cid Dual-Quad V-8 rated at 425 horsepower, the same
engine Shelby dropped in his 427 Cobra. The 427 powerplant in the
R-Code is capable of 480 pound feet of torque and neck snapping
power which the factory estimates a mid 12 second quarter mile! The
427 engine option was intended to replace the 406 that Ford was
using at the time for NASCAR applications was built to utilize the
maximum displacement of 7 Liters that NASCAR allowed. All this
power is translated through a be This gorgeous Galaxie is dressed
in Corinthian White and only clocks an impressive 1,500 miles since
it was restored. The restoration did an amazing job of preserving
an American icon and this Galaxie shows just as good as it runs and
drives. The collectability of the 1963 1/2 R Code Galaxie is
definitely at investment grade and something worth holding on to.
On the inside, you will find a very tidy, Black vinyl interior
which provides many great amenities that give a great feeling when
you are behind the wheel of your Galaxie R-Code. Only 3,857 1963
1/2 Galaxie R Codes left the assembly line and now is your rare
opportunity to own one. For more information on this super rare
