Ford Galaxie 390 V8 1962
General description :
Boulevard Cruiser!
Just Toys Classic Cars is proud to present this beautiful 1962 Ford Galaxy 500XL Convertible. This is one sweet ride that has been gone through over the years and it just looks awesome. The paint is the original color, but was repainted about 15 years ago. It is all of the original trim on the car and it looks great. The white top shines like it should and everything works great on the top operation going up and down. Very nice car that as you continue to read is a little more than a slow boulevard cruiser.
The interior of this car was redone as well and as you can see in the pics the gleaming white interior just looks awesome. You have an AM/FM radio with an amp in the trunk so you can blast all of your favorite tunes as you blast down the road. The center console looks great and it allows you to just lean on it with one hand on the wheel and just cruise.
Under the hood however is where the business end of things really takes place on this baby. This car was born with the 390 that you see, but it has been gone through and redone with some upgrades that make this baby fly when you lay in to the loud pedal. This awesome motor is mated to a C6 tranny as well as the original rear end. This is just an awesome machine.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
