Ford's Galaxie line-up of full-size cars was named after the exciting space race that captured America's imagination. Running from 1959 to 1974, the Galaxie competed head-to-head with Chevrolet's Impala and remains a sought-after American classic from Ford. This particular 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 has undergone a comprehensive restoration in 2006, featuring numerous updates and performance enhancements with only 500 miles on the new motor.

Painted in a unique shade called Nissan Seascape Metallic, this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 stands out with its distinctive color. The two-door coupe body style is paired with 15-inch American Racing aluminum wheels wrapped in Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires. The car's chrome work is another noteworthy detail that the restoration clearly did a marvelous job of bringing back to luster. Now, it's time to head aboard and see what accommodations are on offer. Inside, you'll notice that the newly upholstered turquoise interior is a near-perfect match for the car's exterior color theme. In true Sixties style, you'll find front and rear bench seats, and the front seats have received an aftermarket color-matched center armrest with cupholders. We also spot color-matched lap belts for safety and even a color-matched dash. The dash remains largely stock, and we see a retro-modern push-button radio unit, though. We're told that the audio system includes an Eclipse 4400 amplifier and 5.5-inch Clarion speakers. We're also told about a Kenwood audio player by the current owner. Popping the trunk reveals a similarly pristine outlook, replete with a spare wheel.
The powertrain received significant upgrades in this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500. It boasts a new 357ci Windsor V8 engine with fewer than 500 miles on it. The engine features a Ford Performance Parts 351W block, bored 0.030 inches over, and includes a refurbished crankshaft and connecting rods. The KB Performance flat-top 0.030-inch over hypereutectic pistons are complemented by a Comp Cams hydraulic roller camshaft with 218/224 degrees duration at 0.050. An Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor supplies air and fuel through an aluminum intake manifold and aluminum heads. Ignition is handled by an MSD pro-billet distributor, 6AL digital ignition system, and Pentronix Flamethrower coil. Exhaust gases exit through Hedman headers, a 2.5-inch dual exhaust, and Flowtech Raptor mufflers. The car features a rebuilt C-6 3-speed automatic transmission with an HD 2,600-rpm stall converter, a 3.25:1 gear set, and a rebuilt 9-inch limited-slip rear axle from 2019. Additional enhancements include a new water pump, thermostat, hoses, and a rebuilt radiator with a shroud for effective cooling.
The Ford Galaxie is a full-size car that Ford built between 1958 and 1974. The name was inspired by America’s then obsession with conquering space, and the resultant space race. Cars gained galactic names and even more out-of-this-world styling cues. The Galaxie would also be made and sold in Australia and Brazil, where it gained a similarly popular reputation. That makes a car like this 1964 Ford Galaxie Convertible a great way to dip your toes into the classic car waters. That’s because this car has received a restoration, with several components rebuilt or replaced in 2021.
The late ‘50s were filled with excitement surrounding the Space Race, and automakers took their marketing brains to the next level. The Ford Galaxie was born as a concept called "la Galaxie" in 1958. Sure enough, its name was inspired by the hot topic of the time and it rivalled models such as the Dodge Polara, which also had the same idea to market around the same theme. This full-size car was first introduced with the Fairlane 500 as the top trim level. By 1962, all full-size Fords wore the Galaxie badge replacing the Fairlane entirely. Fast forward to 1964, the Ford Galaxie was in its second generation and the final year of its new body style. What we are offering here is a 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL Convertible, bringing you back to an era of 60’s open top motoring.
Back in the 60s, a host of machines graced the floors of motor shows and stunned the world with their designs and features. The 60s was also the golden year of muscle cars; legendary marques like the Ford Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro saw the light of day. The Ford Galaxie stood out among the multiple big nameplates; its intriguing design and performance made it a popular choice with multiple segments of the car buyer market, but there's no denying that the Ford Galaxie was best when in Muscle form. Present today is this 1969 Ford Galaxie 500; this muscular hunk from the 60s has a reported 82,000 miles as reported by the current owner. This is muscle car royalty and can be yours to grace your driveway and savor a quick weekend drive.
Ford’s famous pony car, the Mustang, just keeps on galloping and galloping! Even with the proliferation of EVs and the relentless customer demand for SUVs, this legendary nameplate is still around to this day. It’s now in the seventh generation which debuted in 2024, and shows no signs of slowing down. Ever since the first Mustangs rolled off the Dearborn lines in mid-1964, the Mustang has represented the everyperson sports car, aptly called a pony car. Today’s 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse is from the seventh generation, and is a special variant with enhanced performance for the streets, much in the vein of the original Boss Mustang 302 of the Sixties. With its 5.0-liter V8, Dark Horse badging and carbon-fiber hood, this Havana-based car boasts just 2,000 miles on the odometer.
Now here’s a veritable legend up for grabs in Camarillo, California! This 1948 Ford F-5 Flatbed Restomod is one of the very first Ford F-Series trucks to hit the roads, as 1948 was the launch year for the F-Series, now in its fourteenth generation as of 2026. Can you think of any other nameplate that has endured for over seven decades like this (OK fine, we know, the Corvette, but this precedes that by five years). This lovely vintage truck has a host of upgrades and boasts just 3,120 miles since then. It’s got a plucky 454ci V8 under the hood, a 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission, a custom wood bed, and more to enjoy.
Behold, the famous Fox Body Mustang, also known as the third generation of Ford’s popular pony car. Introduced in 1979, the Fox Body would go on until 1993, and the successor would also use its platform. Now, Fox Bodies are becoming desirable by a segment of enthusiasts who recognize its distinctiveness and quirks too. And yes, the Fox came with a V8 engine option too. Case in point, this fine 1987 Ford Mustang GT Convertible from Cumming, Georgia. This car packs a scarcely believable 4,400 miles, making it a nice time capsule of sorts. It’s got a Marti report included with the sale, and rocks a white soft top. Oh, and of course, there’s a 302 under the hood.
A defining muscle car of the late 60s, the 1969 Pontiac GTO captured the era’s spirit with brute V8 power and unmistakable styling. This example, finished in green over a black interior, is reportedly powered by a 400ci V8 paired with a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission and remains largely true to its factory configuration. Tasteful updates such as modern air-conditioning and Bluetooth audio enhance usability while preserving the car’s classic personality. With its strong mechanical foundation and desirable drivetrain, this GTO offers a proper blend of originality, comfort, and vintage American muscle.
One of General Motors’ most successful and popular A-body midsize cars, the Chevy Chevelle ran between 1963 and 1977, across three generations. It was offered in sedan, station wagon, coupe, convertible, hardtop and coupe utility forms. Back in the day, it was the default choice for many families who wanted clean, reliable and easy motoring, especially when you choose a station wagon. Now, some of these classics have become restomods, like this 1,242-mile 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours Restomod LS3 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This spacious station wagon packs a 6.2-liter LS3 V8, an aftermarket sound system, a reupholstered leather interior and more goodies to make it sweeter on every drive. The car has reportedly been refreshed by Luce Customs.
The second generation or C2 Chevy Corvette came in 1963, bringing that famous split-screen window to the party. Sadly it was discontinued after just one year due to rearward visibility concerns. But, the C2 also gave the Corvette things like pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Stingray badge. Hence, finding and acquiring a C2 in great condition is a very smart decision, soulfully, as well as financially. Thankfully, we’ve done the finding part for you, and present this 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible for your consideration. This sub 43,000-mile survivor car from Riverhead, New York comes with a Turbo-Jet 427ci V8 and 4-speed transmission, original keys, the original owner’s manual and even a Protect-O-Plate included with the sale.
