Description of 1964 Ford Galaxie |
Selling my 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 with a beautiful patina. A little history about this car. My uncle Richard Johanson owned the car since it was new. He was an avid motorsports fan and great mechanic. When his son Chris Johanson (yes the famous artist) turned 16 it became his car. He drove the car for years until the oil pump failed. The car was parked for about 15 years and was then given to me when my uncle was failing his Leukemia treatments. My shop Blu808 Motorsports spent the next 2 months rebuilding the car (list below) and gave it back to him for Christmas at their annual Christmas party in 2014. He was ecstatic and overcome with emotion. It was a great day for everyone and well worth the work. Unfortunately he lost his battle with cancer and gave the car back to me. I currently have too many vehicles and need to let this one go. No reserve auction. Feel free to message me any questions. The entire car was gone through and rebuilt in November 2014 and has been sitting in storage since. Recently brought out of storage and tuned up last month (Dec). I have $11,000 worth of receipts for work and parts that were installed then. The has been driven about 50 miles since the build and drives excellent. Here are some of the items that were done to the car. Original 289 engine completely rebuilt by Victory Machining in San Jose, A. Holman and Moody custom ground torquer camshaft with lifters New water pump New Fuel pump New Edelbrock intake manifold New Edelbrock 600 cfm carb New Edelbrock air filter New Offenhouser style aluminum valve covers New hoses and belts New fluids New Brake master cylinder New rubber brake lines New Brakes all around New front springs New rear leaf bushings New Shocks all around New Muffler New gaskets New coil New distributor New spark plugs New wires New engine wiring New crankcase breather Re-cored radiator New tires New Carpet New sun visors and various other items. The car is a real runner with the cruisamatic transmission. The chrome is still all there and in great shape. The headliner is perfect, nterior is really nice. Even the original radio still works. Selling for the best offer. These 64's are hard to find in great condition. Car is currently registered and ready to go with a clean California title. Please contact me with your offers. Car has only about 50 miles on it since the rebuild. My shop that built the car is called Blu808 Motorsports. Please feel free to Google that to see our quality of work. Luke |
