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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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.

Finished in Blue with a Brown interior, this Tudor keeps the unmistakable proportions and mechanical simplicity that defined the Model A era. Yellow wire-spoke wheels, whitewall tires, a rear-mounted spare, and a luggage trunk give it a period-correct touring look, while a FRAM PH3500 spin-on oil filter conversion adds a subtle practical update. For anyone drawn to prewar motoring, this is the sort of car that delivers the experience in a wonderfully straightforward way.

Finished in silver with a custom paint job over a reupholstered gray leather interior, this SpeedStar mixes show-car presentation with real hot rod substance. Add in 4-wheel disc brakes, aftermarket suspension, custom wheels, power-operated features, and an upgraded audio system, and you have a build that is as much about craftsmanship as it is about attitude.
