1964 Ford Galaxie For Sale - HOU2147

Gateway Classic Cars Houston is very proud to present this absolutely gorgeous 1964 Ford Galaxie 500XL fastback. This is a true "4D68Z" and a "63C, X, 86" Z-code 390 C.I.D. 4 bbl XL Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed automatic finished in beautiful Maroon metallic vintage Burgundy paint and sitting atop a set of vintage looking Keystone chrome & black rims, further enhancing it's early 60's muscle car image. For 1964, the top Galaxie was the 500XL, which included all trim found on lesser Galaxie models, plus bucket seats, a console, and a floor shifter. The 1964 Ford was the final refinement of a platform that had arrived for 1960 and it was a thoroughly conventional chassis, consisting of an independent front suspension, ladder frame, and a leaf-sprung rear axle controlling Ford's famously durable 9-inch rear end. On this particular example, there have been numerous upgrades and enhancements that have been made to what is appearing to be a previous (although not documented) restoration. The suspension shows very little to no wear on the bushings and shocks, and the entire undercarriage of this Galaxie is just as nice as the top side! It has also been recently fitted with an oversized "BeCool" aluminum radiator, electric fan set up, "Select Aire" dealer supplied aftermarket A/C system blowing cold, new distributor & a Flame Thrower electric ignition with an MSD coil, An Edelbrock aluminum intake with a Holley 4bbl carb, Sanderson Street Rod headers, front disc brakes, a new power steering pump, new 20 gallon fuel tank, Dynamat insulation under new carpets, new alternator and new power window regulators. I am sure I am missing a bunch of other newly added goodies, but you get the picture here! This is one of those vehicles that we get in that makes us just stand back & admire it. From the black buckets to the nicely implemented Classic Instruments gauges, you will not be disappointed in pulling this Galaxie up to any show or meet anywhere in the U.S. or just taking it out for a nice weekend cruise.
