1961 Ford Galaxie --

Style, size, and plenty of V8 power, this 1961 Ford Galaxie hardtop delivers a premium classic experience for quite an affordable price. Black and chrome is an awesome combination. That newer chrome bumper up front combines with the extra-wide grille and even half-chrome headlamps to create a 10,000-watt first impression. The factory correct Raven Black has been given a professional re-application later in life to have a terrific luster. And as you look at the profile, the formal... hardtop roof has plenty of trim to give this premium distinction. And speaking of premium, real Cragar wire wheels look like pure rolling opulence. The profile only gets better from there. There's trim that starts at the door handle, and it doesn't stop until it reaches the jet-inspired taillights. And the lower full-length trim helps form the intricate design just behind the rear wheels. And this also fully incorporates the rear bumper. The total result is a full-size Ford that's also a well-coordinated work of art. The factory-correct red and white interior is part of the Club Victoria line, and it really stands out against the glossy black on the outside. It's the perfect mix of bright white for distinction, and red velour to keep you comfortable where you sit. And the full two-tone can be seen on the door panels, carpeting, dash, and headliner for a very uniform package. This really is a cool classic coupe, and there's a nostalgic feeling when grabbing the artful factory wheel and shifting from the steering column. As you gaze across the dash, you realize the level of care in this car with everything from the AM radio to the heat/defrost controls in remarkably well preserved condition. The huge trunk even has the correct mat and a full-sized spare. Open the hood for a true treat. This Z-code coupe has the correct 390 cubic-inch V8 that's likely original to the car. It looks great with the golden air topper and matching Thunderbird valve covers radiating from within the darkness. Plus, this V8 was completely rebuilt, and includes a bored .30 over kit, rebuilt four-barrel carburetor, and stainless dual exhaust. They even got the details right with newer belts, hoses, and an electric fan to keep this coupe running cool. So you have the ideal mix of tradition and upgrade to keep this Galaxie cruising effortlessly. You even have newer brakes and a three-speed manual transmission for total control. Complete with build receipts and maintenance records you looking a distinct and powerful coupe offered for an unbeatable price. So don't miss out, call today!
