Ford: Galaxie 500xl

Due to high bidder "accidentally bidding. waking up and realizing he accidentally won!!!!" (Literally the excuse that was emailed to me) This item is being re-listed .  

Up for auction AGAIN is my freshly completed 1964 Galaxie 500xl 390 big block auto. Drivetrain is a fresh rebuild with literally under 5 miles since completed (drove from shop to home) the rebuilt NUMBERS MATCHING 390 big block produces approx. 300hp and the rebuilt NUMBERS MATCHING automatic transmission shifts like the day it came out of the factory. The project took about a year to complete and during that time things changed (as they usually do) no room for the car and unfortunately it has to go. The reserve is set at a fraction of what I have into it - anyone who ever commissioned a build to be done will understand the amount of money it takes to complete one of these projects - particularly if you are paying to have it done. With that said. I will list the features/items of the car to the best of my ability - please feel free to ask questions if I missed something or you need any clarification.

- Fresh rebuilt numbers matching 390 big block

- Fresh rebuilt numbers matching automatic transmission

- New rad. master cylinder. etc

- Willwood 6 piston brakes all around

- Full ride-tech level 2 Galaxie kit - see ridetech website and look under complete kits. then Galaxie stage 2 with digital control/readout unit

- Additional compressor and tank for faster response time (dual compressor and tank setup)

- New full exhaust

- Body was stripped. completely shaved (including handles) and painted wimbledon white

- All chrome was powder coated black - with the exception of window moldings - those were wrapped in black 3M - flawless!

- Riddler 20" x 8. 5" (rear) and 18" x 8" (front) wheels and new tires - after received they were powder coated black

- Remote door poppers

- 75% of the interior replaced to make it showroom condition (full red interior) the 500xl has the front buckets with center console - very cool looking

- Custom gauge cluster with autometer gauges

Not to mention the hundreds of smaller things like gaskets. key cylinders. wiring. new battery. nbsp;etc etc etc that gets replaced on a build like this along the way

Visually the car is absolutely stunning - blacking out all the chrome gives it a very SINISTER look and with the air ride laid out it is likely the most stunning Galaxie you will ever see. I kept the interior red to match the large 6 piston red brake calipers. which really pop through the black powder coated wheels. I did not tint the car as I wanted the mint condition classic red interior to pop as well. Under the front hood I spent money to keep it stock looking as I feel there is some value in this car being numbers matching - I also liked the stock under hood contrast with the pro touring exterior concept - it is as clean as you will get it. In the trunk we laid out the stainless air ride components as if they were on display including an added 2nd compressor and 2nd air tank for faster on demand air - it also balanced it out nicely.

Please note that some of the pics were during the build so if something looks incomplete. that's because it was - the car is complete. tested. runs perfect. and everything operated perfect - blinkers. wipers etc.

Hoping she goes to a good home where someone will really enjoy her.
