The domineering presence of Ford's full-size Galaxie is hard to mistake, and when you take a single look at this stunning 1964 Galaxie 500 Fastback, it's easy to see why. With long, low bodylines, a massive engine, and new chrome wheels, this '64 Galaxie is ready to take on the highway at any time. Rebuilt by the previous owner and running well, the behemoth 427 C.I. V8 sitting under the hood breathes through a 4-barrel carburetor, showing that this '64 Galaxie is deceptively quick. Torque is stomped into the pavement through a Ford "C6" 3-speed automatic transmission, which shifts seamlessly as this Galaxie glides down the road. The exterior's straight bodylines are bathed in a good-looking "Red" paintjob, which has great reflection after being washed and shined up! The chrome brightwork is also in good shape, presented with a great shine. Additional complimentary chrome trim arrows extend from the grille all the way to the rear of the car, pairing nicely to this Galaxie's red paint! The underside of this Galaxie is also very sturdy, with solid frame rails, floors, trunk and jambs. Opening the twin doors to this Galaxie's insides reveals an original tan vinyl interior, in driver's condition and in needing of some repair. It features new aftermarket gauges as well as big comfy bench seats that are great for cruising! Options on this sweet '64 Galaxie include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, an electric fan, a serpentine belt system, an aluminum radiator, new aftermarket gauges, a heater, vent windows, a driver's chrome mirror, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a new set of 17" chrome American Legend 5-spoke wheels over blackwall tires for a look that blends the best of both vintage and modern appearances! This '64 Galaxie runs and drives down the road very well, making for a fantastic car to either jump in and enjoy or to restore to true show-quality status. Whether you're looking for your next driver or your next potential car-show centerpiece, this '64 Galaxie 500 makes a great candidate either way.
