Vehicle Description
The Saint Louis Gateway Classic Cars now has this amazing original low mileage 1965 Ford Galaxy 500 for sale in our indoor showroom. BACKGROUND: The Ford Galaxie is a full-sized car that was built in the United States of America by Ford for model years 1959 through to 1974. The name was used for the top models in Ford's full-size range from 1958 until 1961, in a marketing attempt to appeal to the excitement surrounding the Space Race. The 1965 Galaxie was an all-new design, featuring vertically stacked dual headlights. The cars were taller and bulkier than the previous year's. The new top-of-the-line designation was the Galaxie 500 LTD. Engine choices were the same as 1964, except for an all-new 240 cu in six-cylinder engine replacing the 1950s-era 223 "Mileage-Maker" six and the 352 was now equipped with dual exhausts and a four-barrel carburetor. (source: Wikipedia) This particular 1965 Ford Galaxie has the 390 cu in eight-cylinder, but it has barely been driven, according to our modern standards of high-mileage. The 31,247 miles are all original; that is, this isn't a rebuild with undocumented miles. What you see on the odometer is what it is, and just looking at the condition of this classic you would think that someone jumped in a time machine to 1965 and brought this back with him. The cloth interior seats barely look sat in and the exterior condition is showroom quality. As you can see from the video, this Ford Galaxie starts and runs like a dream. One thing to really like about this car is the document history that you'll inherit, which goes all the way back to the early 1990s. Recent work includes new brakes, water pump, alternator, exhaust, belts & hoses, rear bearings and seals, and electric ignition and coil. In short, you have every reason to inquire further about this 1965 Ford Galaxie 500 by viewing it in greater detail, including HD pictures and an HD video of the car running and driving at our website - http://www.gatewayclassiccars.com.
