This Galaxie harkens back to a time when there was no talk of fuel shortages, and carrying the classification of a full-sized car was still considered a badge of honor. You don't see all that many drop tops with its generous proportions - even among classics - yet its overall symmetry gives it an agile, sporty look. It's clad in the same shade of yellow it rolled off the assembly line with and the paint makes a nice showing, offering a pleasing shine. Same can be said of the bumpers and chrome brightwork as well. Should you find yourself out on the road when skies darken, there's a power white convertible top ready to springs into action that seals well and features a nice, clear plastic window in back.

The bench seats in both front and back don't show any pronounced wear marks or cracks on their covers and the carpeting lining the floor is in strong condition, as well. Owing to this Galaxie's generous proportions, there's an abundance of room on hand, with shoulder width aplenty and rear seat legroom that will have your backseat passengers smiling as they join you on your motoring adventures. The unique dash is original and does show a little wear from the years in service, but still remains very attractive. Pop the deck lid and you'll see another benefit of the 500's size - there's plenty of luggage space in back, even with a full size spare on hand.
Under the hood is a 351 cubic inch V8 sporting its proper Ford blue block, valve covers and air cleaner. The smooth running powerplant sits adjacent to fresh hoses and a master cylinder, power brake booster and alternator that all appear to have been recently added. Turn the key and this classic Ford's road-ready condition will be evident right off the bat - the engine sounds strong and teams with a 3-speed automatic transmission that provides secure shifts. Power steering makes navigation a low-effort endeavor, while power brakes that feature discs up front bring this Galaxie's set of 17" Torq Thrust II wheels wrapped with Hankook Ventus tires to dependable, fade resistant stops. The undercarriage shows the patina you'd expect from a car of this era, but looks solid and sturdy.
With its driver and passenger space in abundance and open-air driving exhilaration just a flick of a switch away, this Ford Galaxie 500XL is one fine ride. Call today!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
