Details

This 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 custom hardtop has been completely restored and is powered by a Thunderbird 390/300hp engine and a Cruise-O-Matic transmission. Additionally, it has stock manifolds, valve covers and air cleaner. The front end is rebuilt and has drop spindles while the rear, along with lowering blocks and new shocks, with the brakes redone to four-wheel disc brakes. The body was stripped to bare metal before painting. All the trim is either new or has been restored; up front the bumper has been rechromed, the grille is original and the Ford medallion at the front of the hood is new as well. The exterior has been painted Rangoon Red with the firewall and bottom of the hood painted red, and the inner fenders and core supports painted semi-gloss black. The entire bottom was cleaned, prepped and painted with red oxide primer. The stainless moldings and trim that wrap all the way around the car have been professionally straightened and polished with new weather strips and window fuzzy seals. The wiper arms are even polished. The two chrome spears on top of each fender are new, as well as the dual mirrors and door handles. In the back the taillights are new, the bumper is rechromed, and the tail panel is brand-new with a dual exhaust system with crossover. It was reupholstered with reproduction red, white and black seat covers that even have chrome embedded trim. Door panels were upholstered to match, and there is new carpet, matching embroidered Galaxy floor mats, new white headliner and visors, and new red seat belts in front. When the dash was removed it was all repainted and detailed out. Down below is a set of chrome Sunpro gauges. There's a retro stereo that fits right in the unique size factory hole that has Bluetooth, voice controls and upgraded speakers. It rides on a set of staggered size polished aluminum Billet Specialties wheels (18-inch in front, 20-inch in back) wrapped in Performance tires.
