When the Galaxie nameplate first came into play in 1959, it was on top of Ford’s full-size model lineup. It was an appealing nickname to the 20th century’s space race at the time, and by 1962, all full-size Fords bore the Galaxie emblem, with 500 and 500/XL designating the higher series. Ford heavily connected the renowned Ford Thunderbird with the Galaxie for commercial purposes, to the point that both models used the same brochure for a year. Knocking on doors of models like Chevrolet Impala and Plymouth Belvedere, the Ford Galaxie became a strong challenger in the full-sized car market.

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.

Ford’s Mustang created a cult, started a trend, and spearheaded a segment. Thanks to Ford’s dynamic team, which included Lee Iacocca, Donald Frey, and Gale Helderman, the Mustang was meant to be a sporty but accessible car that could perform family duties as well. Hence, the pony car was born. Depending on which school of inspiration you believe, the Mustang is named after the legendary P-51 Mustang aircraft, as well as the American quarter horse of the same name. Nevertheless, owning a first-generation Mustang is a bucket list item for many, and we’ve got a lovingly restored 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback for sale today.
