Description of 1963 Ford Galaxie XL

This is a very rare original R code XL convertible that I have owned for 17 years. The 63 R code XL convertible is one of Fords most iconic and sought after models. This one is uniquelyspecial in that It has only 35,200 miles on it and less than 100 miles on the fully rebuilt original engine. This is a no rust ever Georgia car that has never been damaged. It waspurchased new by the father of a nationally known Ford authority and restorer. It has had one repaint long before I bought it, most probably in the 1980's or 90's and it was done right as there are no flaws over this length of time.The door jams and trunk are original paint, the interior is 100% original including the carpets. When I bought the car it had been sitting for many years and all of the mechanicals needed attention. Everything mechanical was rebuilt including, engine, and everything bolted to it, the suspension, brakes, transmission, rear end with new Detroit locker and 4;11 gears as it had when it left the Ford Atlanta plant. Everything was done to bring the entire car back to better than new condition without regard to the cost of accomplishing the ultimate goal. The car is pictured with mag wheels and I have 5 originalcorrect Kelsey Hayes 15 X 5-1/2" HI PO wheels in pristine condition plus 4 correct NOS factory full wheel covers that go with the deal. It has the super rare below dash mounted dealer installed tachometer with matching oil pressure and oil temperature gages. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the best 63 XL R code convertibles in existence. All documents including receipts for restoration work will go with the car. Payment in cash, certified bank check, or wire transfer can be arranged. I encourage personal inspection of this car if possible.
