This 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 hardtop is a two-door example equipped with an R-code 427ci V8 and a four-speed manual transmission. Refurbished at some point prior to the seller’s 2014 acquisition, the car is finished in white over two-tone blue upholstery and is equipped with 15″ wheels, power windows, a heater, and a push-button AM radio. This Galaxie 500 is now offered with a set of wheel covers and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.

The car was factory-finished in Wimbledon White (M) and is noted to have been repainted under prior ownership. It is equipped with a remote-adjustable driver-side mirror, quad headlights, tinted glass, and chrome bumpers with guards. Paint bubbles on the quarter panel are depicted in the gallery below.

The 15″ steel wheels are mounted with BFGoodrich-branded thin whitewall tires, and a spare is housed in the trunk. A set of faux-spinner covers is included in the sale. The car was factory equipped with a coil-spring front suspension and asymmetrical rear suspension with leaf springs mounted on the axle forward of the spring centers to reduce rear-end squat.

The cabin houses a split-back front bench and a rear bench upholstered in blue vinyl with contrasting pleated inserts. Appointments include power windows along with a heater, analog clock, a rear seat speaker, and a push-button AM radio.

The three-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring and fronts a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 33k miles, and total mileage is unknown.

The 427ci Thunderbird V8 was factory equipped with dual four-barrel carburetors and has a transistorized ignition.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a 3.50 rear end.
