If the name Galaxie sounds space-related, that's because it is. The Fifties and the Sixties were the height of the space race, and nearly every consumer good in the United States incorporated some element of the cosmos in its branding. Ford chose the name Galaxie for its full-size car between 1959 and 1974. The name is fitting, particularly when considering this third-generation 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible in all its 213 inches length. Sporting just 15,000 miles after a complete frame-off restoration that includes a new motor, it's a great classic that will motor on for decades.
This 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible looks stunning in all its teal glory after the full frame-off restoration that it underwent. It also sports a new windshield and new tires on retro-modern wheels. You'll notice that the lights and chrome work look excellent, as does the white convertible top. Ditto the Ford and Galaxie badging, which showcase the pedigree of the car. There's plenty more work to recognize, albeit under the skin. For now, let's get inside and appreciate the tan interior that the seller reports to be from a 1965 Galaxie. We have been informed that the dash has been rewrapped, plus an electronic trunk release has been installed. The seats look excellent with their lap belts, as does the center console with its wood trim. You'll also note some extra gauges have been installed to better monitor the car's vitals. Playing more games of 'I Spy' reveals an aftermarket JVC head unit with Bluetooth and USB connectivity, plus aftermarket speakers for an up-to-date infotainment experience.
This 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible packs a new 350ci (5.7L) crate engine with an automatic transmission that's reportedly been rebuilt. The seller tells us that there's a Posi rear, a new fuel tank, updated suspension, new headers, cams, a stainless steel exhaust, a chrome alternator, chrome power steering unit, electric fans, a new radiator and electronic ignition. You'll also be glad to know that the brakes have been converted to a disk set-up for better braking power. There's even a battery cut-off in case of emergency.

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.

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.

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels.
