LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1966 Ford Galaxie 7 Liter

Lower, wider, and longer is how Detroit made cars in the '60s, and this 1966 Ford Galaxie is arguably the best way to show that off – it's big, bright, and has a powerful 428 V8. Ford let the world know about the 7-Liter, with a "7-Liter" emblem in the driver's side of the grille. The 7-Liter existed as a stand-alone model for 1966 and was an offshoot of the Galaxie 500 series. The 7-Liter was Ford's version of the Mercury S-55, which FoMoCo also introduced in 1966. Today, when people look to buy a 7-Liter car, the more common moniker is a Q-code with an Autolite 480-cfm four-barrel carburetor. The bore and stroke measure 4.13 x 3.98 inches, respectively, allowing it to pump out 345hp at 4,600 rpm along with a stump-pulling 462-lbs.ft. of torque at 2,800 rpm. With 10.5-compression, the Q-code engine also had solid lifters, low-restriction dual exhausts and an unsilenced chrome air cleaner.
This 1966 Ford Galaxie was ordered from the factory with the optional Q-code 428 and backed by a C6 automatic. Special-ordered by the original owner Harold K. Arnold in Barnesville, this all original survivor has been preserved throughout the years having only accumulated 10,845 original miles from new. Captivating in the original factory Candy Apple Red the paint is bright and predominantly clear with areas which reveal its original character seen by the various marks, minor topical scratches and natural patina. The body panels, doors and trunk lid have good fitment with typical gap space for the era and line up well. The chrome and metal surfaces are in good original condition with the bumpers displaying minimal deterioration. All of the trim pieces are original and are damage free. On the hoist, the undercarriage is reflective of an original never restored car, however, as can be seen in the pictures, this one is exceptionally clean and impressive. Lifting the hood, you can appreciate the originality of the components surrounding the "Q" Code 428 cu. in. engine. The interior features original factory Red Vinyl Hi-Back Bucket Seats on red carpet, both of which are original and in very nice condition. The steering wheel, console and door panels are original and show minimal wear for its low mileage and age. It also comes fully documented with Ownercard, Owner’s Manual and Dealership Brochure.
At Concours events nationwide “Preservation Classes” have been added to showcase well preserved and mostly unrestored, un-refinished, and unaltered cars. In "Hagerty's Cars That Matter" they observed unrestored cars sell for prices that would have astonished in the recent past. Overall, this car is a truly beautiful survivor and presents a very unique opportunity in which to purchase an extremely desirable, original and fully documented Q Code Galaxie. According to the 7 Liter Galaxie Registry, this car is currently the lowest mileage original known to exist.

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.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
