The late ‘50s were filled with excitement surrounding the Space Race, and automakers took their marketing brains to the next level. The Ford Galaxie was born as a concept called "la Galaxie" in 1958. Sure enough, its name was inspired by the hot topic of the time and it rivalled models such as the Dodge Polara, which also had the same idea to market around the same theme. This full-size car was first introduced with the Fairlane 500 as the top trim level. By 1962, all full-size Fords wore the Galaxie badge replacing the Fairlane entirely. Fast forward to 1964, the Ford Galaxie was in its second generation and the final year of its new body style. What we are offering here is a 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL Convertible, bringing you back to an era of 60’s open top motoring.
Ford stated in its sales literature that XL stood for "Xtra Lively" and it was available in two-door convertible versions. For 1964, the exterior featured a more sculpted look, which was designed to make the car aerodynamic for NASCAR. Ford's traditional pie-plate round taillights are defining features of the Ford Galaxie. The car has 500 XL badging throughout and an elegant black paint that is complemented by thick chrome trim around it adorns it. It rides on vintage-style whitewall tires that wear new Wire Spoke hubcaps and according to its owner, the convertible top is functioning flawlessly. Inside, the original black interior of this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL features thin-shell bucket seats with chrome trim. The Galaxie mats will still keep your floors clean while the swing away steering wheel makes life easier while getting in and out of the car. Its owner also claims that all electronics are functioning and a recent servicing has also been done.
Under the hood of this 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL resides its original 390ci V8 engine that is mated to the original 3-speed automatic transmission. It produces around 195 HP. The thoughtful owner has fitted this powerhouse with a new distributor, 4-barrel carburetor, aluminum radiator, spark plugs, and wiring. In addition, the car has been upgraded with a new 4-barrel Edelbrock carburetor, new 4-wheel drum brakes, a rebuilt master cylinder, a new solenoid and battery, a newer distributor cap, wiring harness, and spark plugs, a new aluminum radiator, and newer dual turbo mufflers.

The Ford Galaxie is a full-size car that Ford built between 1958 and 1974. The name was inspired by America’s then obsession with conquering space, and the resultant space race. Cars gained galactic names and even more out-of-this-world styling cues. The Galaxie would also be made and sold in Australia and Brazil, where it gained a similarly popular reputation. That makes a car like this 1964 Ford Galaxie Convertible a great way to dip your toes into the classic car waters. That’s because this car has received a restoration, with several components rebuilt or replaced in 2021.

Back in the 60s, a host of machines graced the floors of motor shows and stunned the world with their designs and features. The 60s was also the golden year of muscle cars; legendary marques like the Ford Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro saw the light of day. The Ford Galaxie stood out among the multiple big nameplates; its intriguing design and performance made it a popular choice with multiple segments of the car buyer market, but there's no denying that the Ford Galaxie was best when in Muscle form. Present today is this 1969 Ford Galaxie 500; this muscular hunk from the 60s has a reported 82,000 miles as reported by the current owner. This is muscle car royalty and can be yours to grace your driveway and savor a quick weekend drive.
There comes a time when the automotive world stands still as manufacturers churn out a car that takes the world by storm and changes the automotive landscape forever. Turn back the clock to the ’50s and Ford did just that with the release of the legendary Ford Thunderbird. From its iconic design to its performance, the Ford Thunderbird was a looker and a performance machine that helped the ’50s American automotive marketplace turn it up a notch. Present today is this lovely 1956 Ford Thunderbird. This ’50s American automotive icon has a reported 13,293 miles on the clock and looks factory fresh and ready for its new custodian.
The first generation Ford Mustang was a smooth cruiser when it had an in-line six-cylinder engine under the hood. Frugal yet fun motoring was possible in this pioneering pony car. Yet, when equipped with the larger V8 engines, the Mustang turned into a true thoroughbred of the racetrack or drag strip. Cars such as this 1967 Ford Mustang GTA offered thrilling acceleration and a stirring V8 soundtrack, paired with the relative ease of an automatic transmission. The engine’s massive power and torque figures meant that even with the slushbox, performance was impressive. This particular car has covered 51,000 miles, comes with the GTA Package and is up for sale in Bownstown Township, Michigan. You’d better act fast to grab it.
In 2021, Ford re-introduced a much-loved nameplate. The Bronco was back, in an all-new sixth generation, and after a twenty five year hiatus. The public loved it – and continue to do so. Just over 35,000 units were sold in 2021, with sales ballooning to over 117,000 in 2022. That makes this 2022 Ford Bronco Big Bend quite a desirable vehicle, as you aren’t likely to find owners willing to sell their precious vehicle. This Daytona Beach, Florida-based four-by-four comes with just 34,031 miles on the clock, a punchy V6 under the hood, the Equipment Group 222A package, and the Mid Package. Let’s learn more about this vehicle, and you’ll soon see why it’s perfect as a family hauler for the adventurous and outdoorsy bunch.
The ’50s was a time to be alive. With smooth tunes and otherworldly automotive design, cars of the time truly reflected a time of growth and post-war creativity.

This classic beauty is a clean example that retains all its iconic factory looks and is looking for a new custodian to cruise slow and low across your preferred B roads.
