Up for auction is our beautiful all original 64 Galaxie 500. This car was sold new in Kansas City, at Midway Ford and was only in service for several years before it was parked inside the original owners garage, where it sat for many years.
When this time capsule was discovered about 7 years ago the odometer reading was only 21,000 miles. The car was brought to Colorado where it underwent a full mechanical check; the engine was flushed with all new fluids and filters, resealed, all new ignition tune-up items, the carburetor was gone through, all new hoses and clamps, radiator was boiled out and filled with new coolant, new fuel pump and water pump. The fuel system was completely flushed and all rubber lines replaced. The brake system was also completely flushed and a new master cylinder was installed. New battery and cables were installed, but all of the original hoses, belts and master cylinder were saved and are included with the car. After all of this was completed and thousands of dollars were spent it was BACK ON THE ROAD! And I will say this car runs and drives like an absolute dream. The engine is tight and super smooth with no smoke or odd noises. The three speed transmission is also quiet and smooth shifting along with the clutch. The brakes work perfectly as expected. As you drive the car it has a very solid and quiet feel. Going over rail road tracks its SOLID with absolutely no rattles. We have put 500 miles on the car and its very reliable and fun!
The exterior of this car is stunning. The paint is original and in super condition, I do think is has had some spot work on the drivers side. Its done very well and matches perfect. I don’t think it involved any body work. Must have been scratched back in the day. There are no patch panels or rust bubbles anywhere on this car. The lower fenders are perfect! The brightwork is all original and super nice. All original glass that is pit free and nearly flawless. Inside the trunk is all original and perfect (not a single rust spot). The spare is a very old bias ply whitewall tire with all of the original jack hardware. Included with the car is also a pair of original fender skirts. The wheels are also all original and have nice bias ply white wall tires with amazing condition wire hubcaps.
The interior of this car is amazing. The seats were covered in dealer installed clear plastic. I would have left them on, but they were yellowed. When I removed them, I uncovered the nicest original seats I have ever seen! They look like their brand new. The door panels are original and look perfect. The headliner is original and perfect. The carpet is all original and super nice. It has always had rubber floor mats that have kept the carpet like new. The dash in this car shows almost no wear, the dash is perfect, all of the gauges are crisp and clean, the controls and switches are all working and feel like new. Everything on and inside this car works perfect; lights, horn, wipers, turn signals, hi-low beam, speedo, gauge function, etc etc…
Inside the glove compartment is all of its original owners manuals, warranty booklet, some old service pamphlets, original keys, When I say this car is a time Capsule….I mean it. When sitting in the car and the AM radio comes on with some oldies and you pull away, it feels like your living in 64’ all over again.
The undercarriage is clean and rust free. The frame and suspension have many of its original paint marking and the floors are still red oxide with only the factory undercoating.
