Details

This custom 1961 Ford Galaxie Starliner was professionally built by Goolsby Customs in Hueytown, Alabama. Power comes from a 435hp Ford Performance Gen 2 Coyote 5.0-liter V8 crate engine mated to a 4L80-E 4-speed automatic transmission from Bowler Performance Transmissions. A custom driveshaft transfers all the power to a Gear-FX 9-inch Ford rear end packed with 3.50 gears with Strange Engineering axles. The engine breathes through modified stock exhaust manifolds matched to a custom 2-inch stainless steel exhaust system with MagnaFlow mufflers. Stopping power is handled by a Baer dual master cylinder with stainless steel lines connecting to Baer Pro+ 6-piston calipers clamping on 14-inch drilled and vented rotors. This custom sits on a Roadster Shop Fast Track chassis and a fully boxed frame with custom cross members fitted with Roadster Shops exclusive Fast Track IFS complete with C6 Corvette spindles and Bilstein coilover shocks at all four corners. The rear end is held in place with a Roadster Shop 4-link set up and it rides on Forgeline RS-OE1 wheels wrapped with Continental Extreme Contact tires. Other modernizations include Vintage Air and power steering. Award winner (Best Ford in a Ford) at the 50th Annual NSRA Street Rod Nationals in Louisville, Kentucky.
