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.
Ford stated in its sales literature that XL stood for "Xtra Lively" and it was available in two-door convertible versions. For 1964, the exterior featured a more sculpted look, which was designed to make the car aerodynamic for NASCAR. Ford's traditional pie-plate round taillights are defining features of the Ford Galaxie. The car has 500 XL badging throughout and an elegant black paint that is complemented by thick chrome trim around it adorns it. It rides on vintage-style whitewall tires that wear new Wire Spoke hubcaps and according to its owner, the convertible top is functioning flawlessly. Inside, the original black interior of this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL features thin-shell bucket seats with chrome trim. The Galaxie mats will still keep your floors clean while the swing away steering wheel makes life easier while getting in and out of the car. Its owner also claims that all electronics are functioning and a recent servicing has also been done.
Under the hood of this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL resides its original 390ci V8 engine that is mated to the original 3-speed automatic transmission. It produces around 195 HP. The thoughtful owner has fitted this powerhouse with a new distributor, 4-barrel carburetor, aluminum radiator, spark plugs, and wiring. In addition, the car has been upgraded with a new 4-barrel Edelbrock carburetor, new 4-wheel drum brakes, a rebuilt master cylinder, a new solenoid and battery, a newer distributor cap, wiring harness, and spark plugs, a new aluminum radiator, and newer dual turbo mufflers.

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.

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.
If you want a classic American off-roader, you can’t go amiss by selecting a first-generation Ford Bronco. This vehicle was the brainchild of Ford product manager Donald N. Frey, who was also responsible for the Mustang. Intended to go head-to-head with the wildly successful Toyota Land Cruiser, Jeep CJ-5 and International Scout, the Bronco came in 1966 and ran until 1978 before entering its second generation. Over 225,000 first-generation examples were sold, which should give you an idea of how wildly successful the Bronco was. Even now, the current era Bronco is selling briskly. Back to our subject car, this 1969 Ford Bronco comes from Dayton, Ohio with only 51,000 miles on the clock. Furthermore, it’s said to be a garage-kept vehicle, which is rare to find with SUVs.
The mere mention of the word Shelby and you are treated to visions of a true automotive icon that ruled the tracks and even the open streets with turned heads as you drive by. Turn back the clock to the 60s and Mr. Shelby had his usual treatment on an American classic — The Ford Mustang, what was born out of it was a true icon. Present today is a tribute build on the legendary Shelby GT350 and takes shape with this 1968 Ford Mustang. This shelby GT350 tribute build is a real looker and sports some uber cool features that just keep giving.
You can’t go amiss by choosing a first-generation Ford Mustang as your starter classic car. Ford’s signature model created the whole pony car arena, and over sixty years later, remains the sole survivor of the segment. The first generation Mustang was offered between 1964 (called 1964½ models) and 1973. Along the way, it offered various engines and came in some high-performance variants too. Buyers could choose three body styles, and many went for the stylish fastback or the slick convertible. But, the third choice, the two-door hardtop offered sleek and arguably unappreciated style that really made owning one a personal choice of distinction. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop for sale in Goodyear, Arizona. With its host of upgrades, this is a classic car that’s suitable for daily driving if desired. Snap it up soon!
Triumph is a brand that not many in the United States have heard of, at least associated with cars. That’s because Triumph made not only four-wheelers, but two-wheelers as well. Yes, Triumph started off with bicycles and ventured into motorcycles. However, in the four-wheeled space, Triumph is best known for their classic British roadsters. Sadly, Triumph went defunct in 1984. The Stag was one of their signature models, produced between 1970 and 1977. Sporting Italian styling, over 25,000 were made across this seven-year production run, and the Stag was targeting the luxury sports car segment. Today’s 1972 Triumph Stag is a little different because it’s got an engine swap that give it more power than stock. Up for sale in Libertyville, Illinois, this could be your way to experience the British roadster life.
