- The Ford Galaxie is a full-sized car that was built in the United States by Ford for model years 1959 through to 1974. The name was used for the top models in Ford's full-size range from 1958 until 1961, in a marketing attempt to appeal to the excitement surrounding the Space Race. For 1962, all full-size Fords wore the Galaxie badge, with "500" and "500/XL" denoting the higher series.
The Galaxie 500/LTD was introduced for 1965 followed by the Galaxie 500 7-Litre for 1966. The Galaxie 500 prefix was dropped from the LTD in 1966, and from the XL in 1967; however the basic series structuring levels were maintained. The "regular" Galaxie 500 continued below the LTD as Ford's mid-level full-size model from 1965 until its demise at the end of the 1974 model year.
The Galaxie was the competitor to the high-volume full sized Chevrolet Impala. and the Plymouth Belvedere.
The Ford Country Squire station wagon, while wearing "Country Squire'' badging, was actually part of the Galaxie 500 line. Some Country Squires had "Galaxie 500" badging on the glove box indicating the series name. These station wagons featured the same trims as Galaxie 500s, and were a step up from the base-model Country Sedan.

I purchased my 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 390 cu inch 4 speed from Triangle Ford in East Liberty, PA. Color was burgundy with black interior. Purchase price was $2,882. Sold the car in 1966. Only great memories to reflect back on at 79 years old now. Your restoration brings back great memories of my "64". Great video!

Creating new memories and bringing back old ones. We love our job! thanks for watching
This car is "drop dead gorgeous". Perfect in every way, it being - in my opinion - the best body design of any Ford EVER. It is bone stock, which makes it that much more appealing. The only thing I would change - and it's ultra minor and would take less than 1 minute to swap - would be to change the chrome aftermarket air breather back to the stock one (that came from the factory). It's so minor it's really not even worth mentioning, but that's just me. The car reminds me so much of our family car in '64. Ours was a 4 dr. hardtop, solid black as well, with the 390 4v coupled with a Cruise-o-Matic automatic tranny. It had a medium grey interior. There was only 1 other family in our small town that had a car that surpassed ours in beauty; a '64 4 dr. hardtop (black as well) Galaxie 500 XL with a cream white interior and the 390 4v. A 4 dr. with bucket seats was something to behold! I love this car, I really mean it. 🥰
Hey great suggestion! Eric has an awesome car here. Thanks for sharing your memories and thanks for watching!!
The chrome air breather cap was installed on all 427 cars after 4/1/1963 (regardless if the car came with the optional chrome dress-up kit or not), reference Ford part number C3AE-6766-A. Changing the cap to black would be altering the original factory appearance.
Stunning 64 - great job.
It literally stopped us in our tracks! We had to know the story. Thanks for watching
Nominee for all time great looking Ford.
Bulletproof mechanicals also, 427 excepted 😉
100% agreed. Thanks for watching
What a magnificent car.I can’t wait to have my own 64 Galaxie one day.Cheers from Australia.
It’s a beautiful car. Cheers!
🍁🇨🇦As a Canadian fan, I must say this vehicle is the most impressive in appearance and history I have seen a quite a while. The work is incredible and the car is 💥”Stunning”💥 much respect indeed for all of your hard work. Cheers.👍
This was an amazing car, thanks for watching!
I want this Galaxie 500. It's an Absolute Gem especially with that beast of a motor, the 427
Take a number! I’m in line ahead of you! It’s a beautiful car. Thanks for watching
247 ? DUH!
I had one of these. My first car. Got it in '71 when I turned 16. Black on black. Wish I had kept it.
beautiful example of a classic
Agreed! He’s done a superb job restoring it. Thanks for watching
My mind is made up. I’m 38 years old and I’m gonna buy a 64 Galaxie 😎👍. I’ve had old trucks before but never a classic car. That is going to change soon. Plus a 64 Galaxie isn’t something you see everyday. It’s not exciting to see a mustang, nova, Chevelle, Camaro, and so on. But when a 64 Ford goes down the road it’s something special !
Right on! We agree completely that's why we wanted to bring you this video. Its an awesome car and even better looking in person. Thanks for watching and don't forget to hit that subscribe button!
An old favorite. .I remember my landlord rolled up with this brand new way back then..it was truly amazing
You must’ve been paying too much for rent 🤪. Thanks for watching
@@TwoGuysandaRide pop said 160 a month...he was wondering now that you mentioned it..he loved that car too
Nice back story on this car and of course a beautiful Galaxie!
Glad you liked it! Thanks
I have a beautiful 63 1/2 that was garaged and covered for years. Just picked it up last year. Brakes
ks and bearings were stuck so thats why it was parked. Neighbor told me for 20 yrs he was going to fix it. never did so called me and said it was for sale. Runs great now and fun to drive. I also put new fuel tank in it. Interior is like new and 80k miles on it
What a great story, and thanks for giving the car another shot at life! Thanks for watching and don’t forget to hit that subscribe button!
Is your 1963 1/2 registered as a '63 or a '64?
@@charles1964 yes registered as a 63
@@olallaeddy
Thanks for the reply....I remember the the Fender 390 Badging, the Ford Emblem Hood Pull, and the Speaker in the Back Seat Rests, that all coincide with a '63, so maybe my old man just told me it was a '64 because I was born in "64? IDK...That's why I asked if a late '63 could be registered as a '64 but it seems like it would be the other way around with an early '64 being registered as a '63....
He did a great job 👏 👏 👍!!! Rebuilding this beautiful Ford Galaxy 😍 💙 ❤ and everything in-between is spot on!!!!!!"" God is Good All The Time!!!"" God bless you my friend!!" God bless you all today 🙏 Shalom
I meant Ford Galaxie!!!" Damn Spell check ✔ ✅ 😳 😕!!" Lol God bless
We agree!
Beautiful car I had two 427 cars one was 1963 1/2 Galaxie and a 1966 Ford Fairlane both cars were R codes I wish I know then what I know now I would still have them
now now
Wow, two of them. Awesome. Beautiful cars indeed! Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching
Had the same model just different color. Wasn't geared for the 1/4 but that thing was beast.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! Thanks for watching and don’t forget to hit that subscribe button !
nice car ...owner yep ....
Thanks for watching!
Looks just like mine...mine was a 390 hp black on red. We could fit 10 head in it going yo ball practice in the 70s. Lost mine to a drunk driver, running a stop sign.
Thanks for sharing!
Q code (410 hp) approximately 3104 produced.
Awesome thanks for the information and thanks for watching
A thing of beauty - well done! Memories/nightmares of using those old jacks with the car leaning precariously. BTW if really nostalgic with a Galaxy this is the song to play (Kate Campbell, Galaxy 500) czcams.com/video/oqtwHNmIZ34/video.html
Agreed! Its beautiful. Thanks for watching
Surprised it's not an XL.
Thanks for watching
Can anybody answer this question? My old man had a Maroon Galaxie 500 Fastback with the T-bird valve covered 390/4V. I remember it was a '64 because it was the same age as me, and the car made quite an impression. I also remember that the hood opened by lifting the Ford Emblem in the center of the Grille like I've seen on the 1963. I Know I'm Not Wrong - can anybody explain??
Eric knows lots about the cars. Ill reach out to him to see if I can get you an answer. Thanks for the question
@@TwoGuysandaRide
Thanks, I would appreciate that. I have a lot of good memories of that car and my Dad and his heavy foot ; )
@@charles1964 oh I’ll bet! My dad drove a ‘64 Impala
@@TwoGuysandaRide
Cool, my oldest brother had an '63 Impala SS 327 too. So many Cool cars back before the '73 gas crisis, me and my best friend were car crazy! There was an old junkyard we would sneak into that was loaded with Hudson's, Imperials, and a row of Packard's. I used to get High from the smell of dry rotted tires, oil, and rust - grown up's thought it was an eyesore, but it was a wonderland to me with all those Cormorants lining the side street....
Only the 1963 Full-size Ford had the hood release using the Ford emblem (as opposed to the 1964 models), so your dad's car was certainly a '63. The "Thunderbird 390" was available in 1963, so it checks out.
Beautiful cars like this make u realize that all the newer cars have no character and 98 percent of them are super ugly.
Agreed!! Thanks for watching
I would be more inclined to drool if it was a 500xl 4-speed bucket seats console with a 427. But still it is a very nice vehicle. And just for the record cars aren't born they don't come out of a bigger cars vagina they are made 🇺🇲
Lol…thanks for sharing
Why they call it a 247??
@@TwoGuysandaRide Your traffic will increase if you correct the title from "247" to "427" :)
Corrected
Too bad they didn't start it.
Thanks for watching!
The shifter knob is incorrect,it is for a console shifter. The correct knob for a non console four speed was a more rounded truck type knob. Probably stripped out and was replaced years ago. I have had a 64 identical to yours but a 500 r code. I also have a1953 ford 300 q code 427 in Wimbledon white and fawn interior .
@@normanjones5167 This shift knob was used on all 1964 Fords with Top Loader transmission, regardless of the interior configuration, Ford part number C2AZ-7213-A.
That had a warranty ? 🤣
thanks for watching :)
Hmm
Well at least the car looks good
Yup, it's a great looking car
