One of the best looking full sized Fords of all time. I was a sophomore in high school when a Ford identical to this one, same package, same black, lit up the street in front of the school. Blew my socks off. My dad was one of the top Ford salesmen in the country for decades, in fact he won a 1958 Thunderbird for being thee TOP salesman in the country that year. He would always bring home the latest and greatest of the new Fords. I remember a 57 black Thunderbird he brought home. The first Mustang out...man that was a blast to drive...when I could steal the keys for it. But the lines on the '64 are memorable. Literally...lots of memories. Thanks...DAD! RIP
What raises your show above the other musclecar series is the quality of the research and the writing. In just a few minutes you convey what makes a car like the one in this episode unique. We motorheads appreciate your hard work.
Thank you for the kind words! We aim to share the facts and stories about the cars, and appreciate you taking the time to provide positive feedback. This Galaxie is a beast, it was a fun episode to shoot for sure.
Catching up on all the episodes. All great Kevin especially with your commentary and experience. Love these old street racers. At 17 I was only a starry eyed dreamer back then but it sparked a flame in my heart that has lived ever after. Nice to have these episodes of MCOTW to remind us of how it used to be. Kudos to you and "the brothers" for sharing all these gems.
Thanks for the kind words, we're glad you are enjoying the videos. Part of the goal of this series is to share these cars with those who may have never seen one, as well as keep those cool memories alive. Thanks again!
Awesome Car...Got to remember some of those cars were used to make an illegal living, as a 10 or 12 year old growing up in the North Georgia Mountains a very fond memory of mine would be when one of these would come weekly in the summer and fall of each year and load it down with their run and my Dads pride and joy, they used cars like this because they would be chased with cars like these....and they would hold a helloa lot Liquor!
You asked, I'll tell. I was born just about the month that 4-27 came out. 4-27-1964. Harbor City, Better Known as Long Beach California. This car was sorta built for the California mindset. Nomatter what anybody says, it is.. Its one of my favorite examples of The "Muscle Car Decade". Bigger than life, Galaxie 427 4 spd, 9" posi. For today, only thing I would change is going from FE to 429-460 and stroke to a 555 or larger. Aluminum top end, puts the whole thing about the same weight with inexpensive parts and giant torque down low. I already have the Big Block Toploader, hardest quality part to get. The rest is easy to put together. The new Ford big block can turn 6-7000K all day if built right, but who needs to with 3:20 rear end and 30" tall10-12" wide 20's on the back? Cruising at 85 all day purring up Central Valley from Bakers Field to Shasta on 5 is a beautiful thing. Or out across Indiana through the corn where I live these days. Raising kids out here just makes far more sense.
Great car. The distributor on the 406 and 427 were dual point centrifugal advance. These distributors had two sets of points. Also, the dual 4 barrel setup came with 11.5 compression whereas the single 4 barrel model had flat top pistons with 12.0 compression. We ran a red and white model with 10 inch slicks would snatch the wheels over a foot of the line.
Tried to buy one of these as I left the USAF in Alabama. They would not even talk to me about it. Ended up with a Galaxie 500xl. Beauty but the 390 300 was a slug. Just too heavy for that motor and valves too easy to float. Went to a 4:11 rear that gave it a little help, however a 1965 GTO put me where I wanted to be. That Ford had the best interior of any car I have ever owned.
Back in the early sixties we(our family) had a 4 door Galaxie that looked just like this except ours wore the 390 instead of 427 badge. With 300 hp, it was "lively" when it was time to "pass" slower traffic on the road. Ours was black like this with a medium grey interior. I wasn't driving yet when we had this car, but I would have loved to have "road tested" it! From a standing start, the car would chirp the tires when shifting from 1st to 2nd, using the "Cruise O Matic" tranny. It was such a pretty car.
Would be even cooler if it had the XL interior . I bought a 64 galaxy in 1973 in Pennsylvania. The fenders we so rusted you could not even sit on the them. I'm amazed any of these Fords are still around and did not rust to pieces. Mine had a 352 in it and I bought it from Yenko Chevy in Canonsburg for $100.00 . It had the XL interior .
The finished metal used to make cars back then was pretty crappy compared to today's metal, which makes these cars much rarer than the cars from today0
@@scarea2691 The metal was the same only thicker (different parts of the body use different alloys.) The difference is the rust protection they use now. In 68 they really cranked up the rust protection. I worked at Ford in those days. Everything corrodes in Penn. A friend had a 10 year old Toyota truck in Penn. and the frame rusted completely into.
I am def not what you’d consider a “Ford Guy” but man this car is just wicked! Love these vids and the fact that you do all different makes and models! Would love to see a special... Muscle TRUCK of the week series! The Dodge CSS sweptline 426 wedge truck from 64-67 would be sweet:)
that 427 sohc motor in that car will fuck destroy a 409. my dad has both in his collection. the 427 is in a Galaxy 64 and one in a Marauder 1964 both will fuckin slam a 409 and a 426 wedge stage3 in the Savoy.And an ls6 454 in the70 chevelle. we have 21 old cars original, but there is something different with the 427 ford.it doesn't even sound like all the other big blocks. we have 2 426 hemi cars and the 427 is the only one I know before I see.both cars sound the same.Marauder and Galaxy.
@@lynndempsey4096 The Ford FE 427 was/is far superior to even the hottest Chevy solid lifter W-Series 409 and its really not even close. Chevy guys have always been in denial big time about that fact
@@trevorwilson5461 The Ford 427 SOHC is the baddest big block ever to come out of Detroit and I'm a Mopar guy. They were rated by Ford at 615 horsepower with a 4 barrel and 657 horses with dual quads. That kind of horsepower and torque in a car with bias ply tires and 1960's steering, brake, and suspension technology would've been downright dangerous so it's probably for the better that Ford never put the Cammer into any regular production cars. Ford did install a few SOHC's in full size Galaxie's to use as test cars but other than that the Cammer was only sold as an aftermarket crate engine
Love to have this car. Fords from the sixties were muscle and art. My first car was a 62 Galaxy coup family hand me down with 250 cu. in. 6 banger. Nothing compared to this beauty but would love to have it back
my cousin “Red” bought one of these in 1983. it took us(his money/my bloody busted knuckles)five years to restore it. He still has that monster along with a couple dozen car that “we” restored.
I had a 63 with a 390 a 64 with a 390 and my last 64 Galaxie 500 XL had a 406 Interceptor that came out of a 62 State Police Cruiser. It was modded with a med rise cast iron intake and a single 780 cfm Holley with the cast iron factory headers and a 3/4 Isky cam. It had a 3 speed on the floor with Overdrive and a 9" rear with 3.25 gears. Closs black and red bucket XL interior that was well worn but comfortable and still very functional. I sure wish I had it today. Some things you never forget and always love. If a man could love a machine I would say that I Loved that old car.
I own one of these exact car's minus the 427. It's triple black, bench seat 352 4 barrel dual exhaust & 37.000 miles & just to be nit picky those hub cap's are 1963 Galaxie cap's, because my dad bought a new 63 Country Sedan & that's what came on it, pic, pic, pic. That's back when car's had CLASS!
My favorite year of Galaxy! I prefer power steering on the 64 because the front end on that year model was a bit stiff. Great on a straightaway but a chore in the corners. Nice car, great video. New subscriber
My favorite Galaxy. Had a line on one my senior year in H.S. Mom said no. She liked the idea of a small British sports car...1956 Austin Healy...so I could drive her around. That's how I learned stick.
Hey, I'm Perry Johnson and I just want you to know. I wanna thank you for an enjoyable video about the Galaxy 500 I happen to be a forward man myself. I was born into a forward family. So you know how that goes the best
The last year of those round taillights they had since 1961. I’d be just as happy with a 4 door family car model with a 289 engine, even the more basic Custom 500.
Car looks amazing! My mom said she had one back in the day, though I'm not sure if it had the same specs as this one. One thing I wonder, though...why does it smoke so much? I even notice it leaves sooty spots on the ground at certain points (something I haven't even seen most diesels do), and this isn't the only Galaxie 500 I've seen do this. Did these engines just run rich or burn oil or something? Weird question, I know, but I haven't seen most other kinds of cars do this, especially not with the spots on the ground.
Not much of a Ford fan. But a '64 Galaxie, especially like this one would really get my eye. I really like that '64 with the R code 427. Other than that, I'm not much into Galaxies, not even the '63s which seem more popular with many "Galaxie guru's" (maybe).
I like the big Street Brawlers, its why I had a 69 383 Road Runner. They no longer make big street brawlers so now drive a 17 SS Camaro to satisfy my needs.
Beautiful car. I wonder how much these things weighed. I believe one could actually order the 427 in the smaller Fairlane at that time. Seems like any performance enthusiast would have always gone for the lighter, more nimble car.
@V8TV I'd really like to know more about the suspension i.e. front and rear springs shocks and whatever else that gives this car its stance? It sits up nice. Many Galaxie's sit lower especially in the rear... I like the stance of this Galaxie.
"The big flat bench seat makes fast turns more exciting!". Yeah. I bet it did. Great way to get your chick pick up for the night right on top of you, a quick sharp turn, haha
My first car also. Purchased for $50 in absolutely mint condition with 27K miles in 1975. Fully loaded. There was the little issue of the top end of the 289 being in the trunk with a cracked head (Lady had a coolant leak). I fixed it up and drove it for ten years before selling it for $200 (kick kick).
It should be a prerequisite that before you can buy a modern muscle car you learn to hot-lash set the valves on a Ford 427......and, get 'em right! Wonder how many I've set.....
BACK IN 65 HAD A BURGANDY/BLACK VINYL ROOF 1964 GAL 500 427/425+++ WITH BENCH SEAT ONE BUILT BY HOLMAN AND MOODY FOR FORD DEALERSHIP IN NJ WAS FOR NASCAR HAD ABOUT A 3'5 REAR DECENT GAS MILEAGE STAYING UNDER 50 LOCALLY BUT HIT IT A LITTLE GOT 4 MI TO GAL STILL NOTHING LIKE IT NOT EVEN MY 62 VETTE WHICH HAD IN 68
stole one of these a blue convt , yanked the motor and dumped it into my 67 390 4 speed mustang g.t. .. direct swap but put in the 11 1/2 solid center clutch plate .. fun around town .ford. tac was a no see at night with red light ..
At 0:53 he says "Ford sold over 920,000 Galaxies in '64" ... Wouldn't that beat the Mustang sales record of a million cars in 18 months? Doesn't sound right to me.
Burnedtoastify in '74, the mustang II sold , like, 800, 000 its first year, making it almost as popular as the original. so I also think his figure is wrong on the galaxy.

Beautiful car. I wonder how much these things weighed. I believe one could actually order the 427 in the smaller Fairlane at that time. Seems like any performance enthusiast would have always gone for the lighter, more nimble car.
If I remember correctly, you actually had to be a race team to buy a ‘64 427 Fairlane Thunderbolt, and it wasn’t as simple as just “ordering one”.
@@MrJett1971 None of the 100 were street legal either. Anyone could buy one, not just race teams.
Like it you dont have to hold the break to burn the tires.
surprised it didnt come with a clutch driven fan , guess they were not available yet.

stripervince1, no, it's a "center oiler". The side-oiler 427 came out in mid-1965.
The poverty caps are '63 Ford.
