1962 Ford Galaxie 500 XL Additional Info:

HERE WE HAVE A VERY RARE FIND. THIS 1962 FORD GALAXIE 500 XL 2 DOOR HARDTOP IS POWERED BY THE MONSTER 406 CI 405 HP ENGINE WITH 3-2 BBL. AND MATED TO A 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION AND THE 4.11 GEAR RATIO REAR END. IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS.

THIS CAR IS ONLY FOR SALE DUE TO THE UNTIMELY DEATH OF ITS OWNER. HE KNEW THE OWNERSHIP HISTORY OF THE CAR SINCE DAY ONE SO THIS IS THE REAL DEAL!! I AM HELPING THE FAMILY SELL THIS RARE CAR. THIS OWNER HAD BEEN WORKING ON A FRAME OFF RESTORATION FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND UNFORTUNATELY NEVER GOT TO DRIVE IT AFTER COMPLETION. HIS CLOSE FRIENDS BANDED TOGETHER AND HELPED PUT THE FINISHING TOUCHES ON THE CAR.

BASED ON THE FACTORY DATA PLATE THIS CAR IS JUST HOW IT LEFT THE FACTORY WITH ITS ABOVE MENTIONED POWER TRAIN, RARE CHESTNUT PAINT AND CHESTNUT LEATHER BUCKET SEAT INTERIOR WITH CENTER CONSOLE. THE ENGINE IS NOT THE ONE THAT CAME IN THE CAR ORIGINALLY BUT IT IS PERIOD CORRECT FOR THIS CAR, CASTING NUMBER "C2AE 8015 J".

THE CAR APPEARS TO HAVE ALL ITS ORIGINAL SHEET METAL AND FLOORS WITH WHAT LOOKS LIKE FACTORY UNDERCOATING. VERY MINOR SURFACE RUST UNDER NEATH BUT NO ROT.

I HAVE SEVERAL MORE PICTURES INCLUDING UNDERNEATH BUT EBAY ONLY LETS ME PUT UP 24. ASK AND I WILL SEND.

IT RUNS AND DRIVES GOOD AND NEEDS TO BE DRIVEN. PLEASE ONLY BID IF YOU ARE READY TO BUY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SALE SO NO GAMES.

$1000 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE IN 48 HOURS, BALANCE WITHIN 10 DAYS, I WILL ASSIST WITH YOUR SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS IF NEEDED.

YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO COME AND LOOK OR SEND AN INSPECTOR TO VIEW THE CAR. PLEASE CONTACT ME TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. THANKS!
