1964 Galaxie 500 Hard Top 352 Fe Auto Four Barrel Solid Original Car Show Ready on 2040-cars
McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, United States
What you are looking at would be considered a survivor,
original, lightly cleaned up or preserved car.
This stunning 1964 Galaxie has had the black paint redone and some other
things cleaned up. But it hasn’t been
restored. It runs, shifts, drives and
acts like a new car. If you can
remember riding in a new 64 Galaxie, this would be really darn close. Just closing the doors, hood and trunk on
this car feels right. Everything works
as it should. Driving to a show today I
decided to try the cigarette lighter and that even worked! This car gets as much positive attention as
my 390 Tripower car. I have stock cars,
powerful cars, even a nitrous breathing Mustang. This 64 Galaxie for sale is a factory 352 4V
car. It’s not a race car…it’s even
better. There is something so nice about
getting behind the wheel of this car.
The motor is snappy. It runs so
smooth, powerful and so easy. This car
is a cruiser. My other 64 is a 390
stroker, aluminum headed 5 speed trip car.
It’s desirable, it’s fast, it’s fun.
I will tell you that driving this black 352 64 is even better. It’s calming, pleasant, and a blast. Something about pulling up to the light with
just some sweet sounding pipes, its low profile and great looks is even better
than being in my cammed up beast cars.
This car takes the cake for cruising.
You can load up the family and hit the local show to get a trophy. It’s that kind of reliable drive anyplace
car. Tap the key and this lively 352 FE
will snap to life. Put it into gear and
she shifts perfectly like it should. It’s
smooth and will put a smile on your face when you hear those big heads
breathing through the factory H pipe into a set of Magnaflow glass packs. When we did the heads and looked in the cylinders there were
still honing marks from the factory.
This car has no exhaust leaks, no oil leaks, doesn’t use or burn oil,
all around perfect running 352 that sits around 175-190*. Today I went for a ride, its 90* out. When I came back to check the temp, we were
sitting at 188* on the coolant.
Impressive! Why am I selling
it? It’s painful to actually consider
letting her go. However I was able to
line up one of my favorite cars and my first car. A 1960 9 passenger County Sedan. I need the money and space to do the
wagon. So this sweet 64 needs to
go. Also I need to give my wife’s
Mustang a bit more attention as well. Below and in all the pictures I am going to highlight what
should be important to anyone who is buying a classic. I have done many cars and even sold a
handful. 100% of the feedback has been
along the lines of people telling me I described the car perfectly or that the
car is nicer than I described. I kind of
like to under promise and over deliver.
I am not fast eddy the used car salesman. I am just a guy who is addicted to what we
call the classic car hobby. I live,
breath and love old cars. Save the hobby
and the cars is what I do. Please see
the good, the not perfect and the beauty of this 64 Galaxie 500. This car was built 10.31.1963 (yes, Halloween) I have the original manual with the original owner’s info
from the dealer where the car was purchased new. It even came with a woman’s guide to good
driving (I’m not being sexist, it was there along with the manual J) The paint on the roof is 100% original; most of the black
has been redone. The black paint isn’t
perfect but sure does shine. There are still the "Paint OK" stamps under the hood. Clearly these fenders have never been off! The interior has a small spot that needs fixed on the top of
the seat. I was going to have the front
seat redone but it would be a crime to touch the original seats for just one
spot. Everything works as it should. Lights, lighter, wipers, signals, reverse
lights, heater, AM radio works and the horn works. Actually the only thing that doesn’t work
perfectly is the fuel gauge. I will get
in and fix it – it’s a common problem in the sending unit. I bet I have a new sending unit on the shelf. New parts just installed in the past 500 miles: Idler arm bushing Tuned Edelbrock 600 CFM 4 barrel Hipo style air cleaner (you get the stock one too but it
isn’t good for flow at all) Fresh C4AE-6090-G heads.
These heads freaking flow! New intake and exhaust gaskets 160* thermostat (huge decrease in temp that makes all FE
motors happy) Brad Penn Synthetic high Zinc 10/40 oil Exhaust manifolds have been high temp powder coated factory
cast color Valve covers have been powder coated factory 64 352 Old Ford
Blue (looks brand new and way better than paint) Fan shield powder coated correct black New caution and 352 stickers. (I did put 352 hipo stickers on the valve
covers. They can come off without
harming the covers. Even though they are
for a 60 hipo, I think they look great on this car) The 352 was a 4.0 bore by 3.5 stroke. Some of these engines were ho hum and some
were great. This motor has factory flat
top pistons. Matching that with the C4AE
6090-G heads really makes this car get up and go if it needs to. The 4v Edelbrock has proven to be a great
carb. It has made this 64 run much
better than it did with the 4100. On one
of my other cars, an Edlebrock made 18 more HP and gained me 3 MPG over a
holley. This was a stock 428 motor and
JUST by bolting this carb on I was able to see the gains on the dyno and at the
pump. You will love the 352 FE with this
Edelbrock! I can include a Ford 4100
that needs rebuilt for you Ford parts only purists. Everything on this car besides the carb and the air filter
is set up like factory. Even the vacuum
set up, kick down, everything is just way it should be. This car sounds good, looks good, works good,
drives good, runs good, and gets good attention. It’s easy to drive. My wife can go out to the car cold, start it
and head out without an issue. Vin Tag Body = 63B Color = AM Trim = 75 Date = 31K Axle = 1 Trans = 4 VIN = 4P66X121252 Breakdown of the vin: Body = 63B (2 Door Fastback) Color = AM (Raven Black/Wimbledon White) (Paint codes 1724
and 1619) Trim = 75 (Red) Date = 31K (October 31st) Axle = 1 (3.00:1) Trans = 4 (Cruise-O-Matic) VIN = 4P66X121252 (4 is the year, P = was built in Twin City,
66 = two door fastback, X = 352 Thunderbird Special 4v, the rest is
constructive number built (this car is number 21,252 produced). It’s nice to see an actual two tone 64 Galaxie. They were not as common as you would think
(or see since so many people do a white roof when restoring). Please contact me before you bid if you have less than 10 positive feedback. If you have less than 10 I have to cancel your bit. I just cant waste time with people who are not looking to buy this car! HERE IS A VIDEO AND 100 MORE PICTURES OF THE CAR!

2013 Ford Mustang V6
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Secretary Trim, Evolved
There was a time not so long ago when opting for a base Ford Mustang meant getting little more than some sheetmetal, an anemic four-cylinder engine and what may very well have been the world's most disappointing automatic transmission. During the Fox Body years, Ford seemed hell-bent on living up to Carroll Shelby's derogatory description of the coupe as little more than a runabout for demure office assistants, and the result was a base model with fewer sporting intentions than a Dilbert day calendar.
Some 20 years later, hopping behind the wheel of an entry-level pony is an entirely different experience. With all of the menacing aesthetics of the brawnier GT, a well-equipped interior and a drivetrain that toes the line between efficiency and power better than few before it, the 2013 Ford Mustang V6 is an attractive option for buyers in the big coupe market. But is it attractive enough to forgo the beastly GT?
MMD by Foose 2015 Mustang GT gets 810 hp and one lucky winner
Fri, May 22 2015Modern Muscle Design worked with the one and only Chip Foose to create this, the MMD by Foose 810-horsepower 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Several things will come of the collaboration, the best one for you being that you have a chance to win the coupe this Summer at the AmericanMuscle Mustang show in Pennsylvania. As of right now you can enter at the AmericanMuscle site, and if your name is pulled from the hat then MMD will fly you to the show in August and Foose will personally hand the car over to you. For everyone else, there is still plenty to pay attention to. The 5.0-liter Coyote V8 gets 375 more horsepower courtesy of a modified 2.9-liter, twin-screw Whipple supercharger from Bama Performance. By the time those horses stampede down a carbon fiber driveshaft, MMD says there are 650 of them left to turn the 20-inch Foose wheels. If you want to take your own Mustang in this direction, there will be a selection of parts created for this car coming later this summer under the MMD by Foose banner, including the hood and side scoops, rocker panels, and chin spoiler. The show car also gets a Vogtland Sport Suspension and a Magnaflow Competition cat-back exhaust. Check out the press release below for more information. MODERN MUSCLE DESIGN AND CHIP FOOSE DEBUT 800+ HORSEPOWER MUSTANG IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MMD by Foose 2015 Mustang to be Personally Given Away by Chip Foose at AmericanMuscle's 2015 Mustang Show this Summer MALVERN, Pa. (May 20, 2015) – Modern Muscle Design (MMD), the leader in aftermarket Mustang styling, along with the renowned vehicle designer, Chip Foose, today unveiled a one-off 810-horsepower supercharged MMD by Foose 2015 Mustang GT at Foose Design Inc. headquarters in Huntington Beach, California. Today's reveal comes ahead of the annual AmericanMuscle Mustang Show in Pennsylvania where the custom-built Mustang will be given away. The 2015 AmericanMuscle Mustang Show is the 7th annual charity all-Mustang car show in which 10,000+ spectators and nearly 3,000 Mustangs gather to benefit this year's charity, Make-A-Wish®. At the heart of MMD by Foose is a 5.0 liter V8 engine producing more than 810 horsepower at the crank courtesy of a specially tuned version of Bama Performance's 2.9-liter twin scroll Whipple supercharger. After being routed through the transmission, a custom carbon fiber driveshaft and upgraded axles from The Driveshaft Shop, 650 horsepower reaches the custom 20" Foose Design wheels wrapped in Pirelli tires.
Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year
Fri, 11 Jan 2013With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.
Scroll down for more about Ford's planned job growth as well as how to go about applying for said openings.
