If you were a kid in the 60's this is the car you would LOVE your Dad to buy.
A good one for sure :-)
Simply, one best good looking Fords with all the excellent quality you expect from an American built car from the 60s!
The blue color and crean upholstery makes things even more impressive with this car!
Happy to read you enjoy this car :-)
1966 was my favorite model year for the Galaxie 500. I remember seeing it before they were sold to the general public. My father was a scientist at the FoMoCo research lab in Dearborn. Each year in the early fall, Ford would put out the new cars on the grass near my father's lab and employees' families could come see them. Every year, the cars had new "looks" unlike these days when the appearance of a model may last 5-10 years. It was an exciting time for a kid who loved cars!
Hi texanfournow
, Happy to read this car / video brings back memories of the Galaxie you remember seeing before everybody else got too :-) Fun experience. Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
One of the rarest out there with that 4 speed and factory air. Beautiful Ford.
Glad to read you enjoy the rarity of this car :-) Hope you see many more on this YouTybe Channel you'll enjoy.
In 1974 when I was 21 years old had a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 XL 390 V8, factory air, identical interior in aqua blue with buckets, 3 speed automatic floor shift, console, exterior in aqua blue, black vinyl top.
Very powerful, lots of torque, tire smoking shredding, highway cruiser.
Came equipped with Sears steel belted radial tires made in France that lasted 70000 miles with lots of abuse.
Unbelievable tire life for the 1970's.
Looking back now wish I took better care of that well engineered machine.
Happy to read this one brings back memories of your 1966 Galaxie 500 :-)
Amazing classic, quite rare too and that 7-Litre badge....how cool?
Hi Hot American Cars, Glad to read you enjoy this car, and I think pretty cool :-) Hope you see many more cars you'll enjoy on this TH-cam Channel, Lou
@@loucostabile I bet we will Lou
WoW WoW Wow! they don't get much better than this! gorgeous styling, manual 4 speed, 7L, gorgeous color, and interior color/design. What a find Lou! Man, I'd love to own this....
Hi 247jimbo, Wow x 3 = Winner :-) Lou
Love the Galaxie 500's . Thanks for posting .
Happy to read this car is a winner for you :-) You're welcome.
Would buy one of these in heartbeat, my second car ever was a 66 in yellow, buckets, 351 Cleveland. Frame was rusted so bad it just broke in half going over some railroad tracks... good times.
Hi Michae;, Happy to read you had a fun 1966 :-) Lou
Jay Leno tells a funny story of hoodwinking his father into ordering this beast when Dad just wanted a nice family car.
A great story. You can see his Dad freaking over the engine...hahaha
It was more likely Mom who was hoodwinked. My classmate's older brothers got their dad to buy a GTO in 1965 and a Pontiac 421 2+2 the following year. "Fool me twice..."
Thank you for viewing and sharing :-)
@@loucostabile Hello" I agree thanks for sharing, this video!
My Brother in law has, the black 4" door model with 454 engen".
But back" in 1969" my brother bought, the 2,door "hard top" version.
Canary Yellow, Black Intirea, it was a 66" model,Galaxy 500,special built.
For a "Smoke Mountain" Moon Shine runner, 428, with twin,.
Cut outs, and positive tracktion, heavy duty suspension.
The works, l think it cost under two gran.
I saw him race a 66" Chevel SS, 396" a 65" Plymouth Fury 383,
And I believe a 69" Dodge Cornnet with 426"engen.
Smoked them all, wow great too" remember.
He was just back from "VetNam" just turned 20", big thank you !
Too all involved in making this video, I love these beautiful muscle cars!!!.
The wired thing about Jay and his car is he has such fond memories of his father’s car but in his he has taken the original 428 engine out of it and put in a crate motor! If you do that, it’s not a 7.0 litre car anymore! I love Jay’s passion and his collection but on this car, I just don’t get it. He’s created a new car in the body of a Galaxi Seven litre.
Fantastic! Ed has quite the good looking & nicely optioned Galaxie! For a 1 year only car, they really got this one right!
Hi TheGunfighter45acp, Glad to read this one is "fantastic" :-) Lou
Thanks for your video on the unique 1966 7 litre Ford Galaxy. I saw this car on an old TV ad. Now I could look closer to its great condition and hear the powerful engine sound! Congratulations to you and to the owner of this impressive muscle car.
Hi Juan, Happy to share this car with you. Good news! Here is one more for you to enjoy, Lou th-cam.com/video/2m7S0Y0qGYA/w-d-xo.html
It is great to see this classic is still driven.
Agreed :-)
Agree 💯%. Too many are shut away in garages, or doomed to life as a "trailer queen".
You got the cars and I have the coffee. Mornin Lou! Nice way to start the day. Have a great day.
Hi Eagle Whitefeather01, Agreed, a nice way to start the day :-) Thank you for the well wishes on the day, and hope you have a great day too, Lou
Just fallen in love, this car sure has style! Nice to see people caring for sth different from Mustangs, Mopars and Chevys, for a change :)
Hi Chris Matic, Glad to read you "love" this car :-) Lou
You have to appreciate a guy with a fantastic scarce muscle car who still drives it Bravo!, looks like a blast to drive!
Hi Dave, I agree, fun to drive & ride in them :-) Lou
I LOVE this car. A 66 Galaxie 7-Litre is my bucket list car.
As I came of age in the mid-late 70s, people were practically giving away those thirsty FE powered Galaxies and T-Birds. I always drove a 60s Galaxie XL or Thunderbird. The 66 XL was, by far, my favorite and still is. Sadly, they were just cool used cars back then. They got used up and tossed aside.
Between 75 and 85, or so, I purchased 3 1966 7-Litres within 20 miles of my home. 2 of them were within 4 miles. They were Emberglo, Black and Red. 2 automatic, one 4 speed. The Auto's had AC, the 4 speed didn't. There wasn't an AM-FM radio or reclining passenger seat among them.
I scoured the local junkyards and never found an AM-FM radio, they were...uncommon. That awesome passenger bucket seat is totally new to me from watching this video. In my 60 years, I've never seen or heard of that option!
Back then, I had no idea how rare those cars were. It was only with the Internet that I found out, long after those 3 cars were gone from my life. I hope they survived and are now on the 7-Litre Registry.
Having enjoyed 3 7-Litres and with 20-20 hindsight, I look back with some regret and repeat the words that so many of us older "car guys" do. "If I only knew now what I had back then...".
Hi Tom, Happy to read you "LOVE this car" :-) You've had three times the FUN. WELL DONE! Thanks for sharing, Lou
Very cool car. And a factory AC car. Gotta love cars like these. Ford made some nice automobiles in the 60's and 70's . These were the cars people went for. Now it's the SUVs and lots of pickups. How the times have changed.
Hi David Davis, Happy to read you think this car is "Very cool" :-) Lou
This car is perfect ! Its just like what my neighbor had when i was a kid of 11 in '66 (though theirs was white). I loved it when he mentioned the roof line. It was always one of my favorite features of this car. Like i mentioned before, i've only seen 2 since then, a red 7 Litre in need of a restoration (but ran and drove) at a Wheels and Deals car lot in the late '80s and a cherry'd out maroon convertible full of family, black top down in a drug store parking lot about 5 years ago.
This installment was great. Thanks Lou and Ed !
High praise g mat :-)
@@loucostabile Thanks again, Lou.
My pleasure.
Beautiful Car...Like new. Older guys really take pride in their cars!
Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Many times when you work hard for something, you'll do what you need to to preserve it.
Beautiful 7 Litre piece.
They also were produced with the 427 R code engine.
Glad to read you enjoy this "beautiful" car :-)
very rare , I had a friend that had one . he just passed not long ago & his family sold it & and his whole collection. 64 red on red 427 4speed galaxie also. I think all R code Galaxies were 4 speed correct me if I,m wrong
@Robrrt Barkddsle ; About 40 427 R codes in the 7 Litre trim package.
That was my very first car. I was 16 in 1968 and I bought a white 7 litre with black interior. For a while I had the fastest car at my high school.
Hi Happy Camper, Sounds like wonderful memories :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou

In Scotland the gas price is so high you would have to sell your kidney to afford to run a 7 litre 😱.We all know what "organisation" has us over a barrel !The car would make a really nice ornament 😂

Hi Thor, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Lou
I purchased a 7 Litre Ford Galaxie 500 new and drove it many years. one afternoon while driving on I-85 with a speed of
85 miles an hour the right rear tire blew out and the car just sat down on that side and it never wobbled. It had touring
suspension, stiff. Automatic C6 transmission. The odometer stopped operating, it would show the speed but not the mileage,
and the AC compressor had to be shut down account knocking and had to be replaced. Had disc brakes on the front like the
Thunderbird. I wish I had kept it.

Hi Paul, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this "Monster Galaxy" :-) Lou
😍👍 Man that's one fine ride.
:-)
Absolutely one of my favorite full size American cars EVER! And you got one with a MANUAL - how cool!! When I watch "Fantomworks" on TV, often I see what looks to be one of these stuck in the back somewhere. I think Leno has one also. You are one lucky guy to have one this nice. I usually make at least one Carlisle show a year but could not do so this year. Would have liked to have seen this in person. Thanks for sharing it!
Hi GIXXER750R, High praise for this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
One of my FAVORITE Years for Ford. Was not a fan of the ‘67 model but in ‘66 the car just looked right inside and out. I went for a ride in a used ‘66 LTD coupe in 1980 and the car was so smooth and quiet I didn’t know the car was running. Amazing how even then these were refined.
Glad to read this one is a favorite of yours :-)
Nice car Lou! 428, 4speed and air conditioning amazing car!
Glad to read the details you enjoy on this "amazing car!" Joseph :-)
Amazing video Lou, have a nice Week end giù and your family 😊😊😊👍
Hi Roberto Benigni, High praise for this episode :-) Thank you for the well wishes, and hope you and your Family has a nice weekend too, Lou
What an awesome piece of History and the guy drives the car he also vintage New York license plates on it which is a nice touch period Proper
High praise for this piece of history :-)
Another great video, car choice. Thanks
Thank you W Scott :-)
Very original 7-Litre! Well done!
Glad to read you enjoy this episode :-)
Awesome Ford !
Glad to read you enjoy this car :-)
I love this 1966 I had a 1965 wagon it had the four barrel 352 cubic inch motor would no t pass a gas station. I prefer the 1966 the lines are cleaner. I love the grill.the same used on the LTD model. That seat was awesome! Love the color a torquey engine. My for was hard on motor mounts too. But I great old car. I like this Jay Leno has a seven Liter. That is the first time I ever saw one. Love the owner of this car and a great piece of history!! Thanks Lou for sharing!
Hi Steve Flad, Glad to read you love this one :-) You're welcome, Lou
Love your channel Lou! I'd love to drop that engine in my 64 Ford Galaxie!
Thank you jewllake regarding the kind words on this TH-cam Channel. It's appreciated :-) This motor would be a fun one to drop in, Lou
The '66 7-Litre was a one-year-only model as Ed said; in '67, the 7-Litre became an option package for the Galaxie 500 XL.
now some one is making pent roof valve covers for 351s & 460s. Shows how popular this engine still is. Name another engine that has been popular so long guys are making valve covers that look like another engine. Next they will be pent roofs for chevys , I hope noy
Hi Keith Coppage, Did you see this one too? Lou th-cam.com/video/2m7S0Y0qGYA/w-d-xo.html
great he drives it!!!
Agreed :-)
this is my favorite lover car
Winner :-)
That is a very unique car and I am Glad Classic cars exist I don't know who I would be if they didn't. I like the way it rumbles if it was a bit more aggressive just a little bit I would be head-over-heels but I'm already In love❤
Hi drew vendee, Happy to read your comment, and I believe you're on the right TH-cam Channel for you, Lou

Fantastic Automobile!! So luxurious and muscular at the same time. Probably very expensive when new. Beautiful features inside and out.
Jay Leno has a burgundy example.
Hi jakespeed63, High praise for this car :-) Lou
I was 13 yrs old when these cars were introduced. It had a base price of around $3598. I remember seeing these vehicles in Ford showrooms when my father was shopping for a new car. With options noted in the video this car had a bottom sticker of about $4450. That placed this Ford solidly in the medium priced field comparable to a similarly priced Pontiac Starchief Executive or a Mercury Montclair.
Not a Ford man but I love to have this Ford.
High praise :-)
Hey wait a minute... How car Joe Ford not be a Ford man? Maybe this car is the converter :-) Lou
Lou Costabile
I’m sensing a backstory!

Beautiful automobile. Jay Leno tells the story of how he basically tricked his father into buying one of these back in the day.. Funny stuff. The interior on this car is gorgeous. I would love to own one of these.
Hi Story Teller, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this dark blue car :-) Lou
@@loucostabile lol it was a shocker. Its not green. 😁 But really a beautiful automobile.
I had one in guardsman blue , under the street lights it looked dark purple, the list price was about $ 4780.00. It had p/w , a/c , C6 and towing package. I saw Jay Leno 7litre restoration but didn't have the white pin stripping like original. I Had the 64 and half Mustang but the 7 was my favorite car
Hi Jorge, Happy to read this video brings back memories of your blue car :-) Lou
I just learned something reading the article from Hemmings as I pause the video apparently you can get a q code 428 or an r code 427- 428 had power brakes. What an interesting piece of History they only made 38 428 , that's unbelievable
Hi acts2211, Thank you for sharing the research :-) Lou
We had 3 neighbors who had Fords. One had a 1965, the other a 1966 and the third had a 1967 station wagon. We bettered them all when we bought a 1968 Pontiac LeMans, until another neighbor got a 1968 Ford.
It's a Pontiac. How did you "better" them???
doglips1958 It was a new car. They were 1, 2, or 3 model years behind. WE had a NEW car, current year! Sniff!!

👍😎Good stuff Mr Lou👍
7L (428) For the public, was severely ‘De-Tuned’ but could easily surpass 500 HP & 500 lbs. torque monster.
Not a FORD fan however this engine is still EVERYWHERE from CA to NY.
Dump trucks, school busses & such ‘buried’ in the nations junk yards awaiting resurrection.
Kuddos to this Gentleman for bringing back old school Cool😎✌️
(Factory😂335BHP, 430lbs-T=4400rpm) 😂😂😂
STUMP PULLING TORQUE!
Heavy 4 bolt main engines of the day! 🇺🇸would pass anything except a Gas station

Perfect car, Jay Leno has one, burgundy automatic, he put a Rousch racing 7 little in it, 4 wheel discs, beefed up trans, leather interior and air, but this one is original
Perfect car = Winner :-)
Very nice Lou, this is gorgeous. I'll bet she runs as good as she looks.
Hi Ed B., Glad to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Lou
Tim Allen is grunting as we speak. And Clyde Barrow is truly doing pirouettes in his grave.
I owned a 66 Galaxy but never knew these things existed, but then I guess I looked the part of a poor kid back then.
This is without a doubt Ford’s best at one- upsmanship in the car wars of the sixties. But the ultimate compliment is the mention of the passenger headrest and reclining seat. It must be the true conception of the term “CAR SEX” !!!
Hi Robert Bennett, Happy to read this car / video brings back memories of your 66 Galaxie :-) Thank you for viewing, sharing, and I hope you see many more cars on this Channel you'll enjoy....and this Thursday you're going to see another one like this so stay tuned, Lou
Beautiful car! I didn't know that you could get headrests in 66.
Glad to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-)
I currently have one like this. Its not a 7 litre, But it is a 66 LTD with the 428 (Q code) and a 4 speed (trans 5) The LTD has the same roof line and is a 2 door with a bench seat. Original color was vintage burgundy. I bet its more rare than the beautiful 7 litre featured here.
Hi Alan, Sounds like you have a cool car too for sure :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
I am a GM guy but that car is sweeeet!!
Happy to read you enjoy this car :-)
Beautiful car Lou. Always liked the full size Ford's of the early to mid 60s. Heard there is a cream colored 65 Galaxie out there with a factory 427 SOHC/4 speed combo. It's one of three Ford's ever to come from the factory with the legendary 427 Cammer.....which Ford rated at 615hp with a single 4 barrel and 657hp with dual quads. Incredible numbers for 1960s technology. Really kinda dangerous with 1960s tire/brake/suspension technology lol. Probably one of the reasons the Cammer was banned by NASCAR. Would love to see you do a video on that one if you can find where it is.
Hi Jeremy Thompson, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) If I find it with a Care Taker, stay tuned and you'll see it, Lou
Jeremy Thompson yes, yes, yes.
I believe there was 1 built by engineering for testing. It was not built by the factory nor was it sold to the public. There was a magazine article about it published back in the day. This is how folklore gets started.
That passenger seat option was also on the T-bird from 1964-79 . Since those seats in the XL and 7 Litre were an upgrade for those models and look very much like the 66 T-Bird seats.....FORD must have offered that Option in the Galaxie XL as well for the $45.00 extra charge .
Hi Gary wood, Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
A 7 Liter badge on an American car in 1966??? Even Canada didn't go metric until the late 1970's...very rare and unusual. A beautiful car to have! Congrats on your find.
Hi ted marshall, Thank you for viewing and I like your attention to details and perspective. Hope you see many more cars on this TH-cam Channel you;l enjoy, Lou
no metric bolts on cars until 78 , thank you jimmy carter,we all had to instantly buy twice as much tools to do our jobs.One american bolt right next to it a metric. Carter has recently lost the badge of worst prez in history, to the last administration which made carter look like a profiteer. Jimmy is so glad to have the moniker off his back. The badge was the only thing metric on the car
Looks like ford went with the Mustang deluxe steering wheel , what a great car
