1967 Ford Galaxie 500
To compete with the Chevrolet Impala, Ford introduced the Galaxie in 1959. It was named to appeal to the recent excitement surrounding the Space Race as Cold War rivals competed to create the superior form of space exploration. The Galaxy 500 received a complete redesign in 1965 as they transitioned to a more tall bulky look with now vertical double headlights instead of horizontal. They also received a redesigned suspension, new instrument panel and more. One of the more unique creations for this group of full size cars was the introduction of multiple keys for use with a valet service. They now had 1 key for the doors/ignition and a 2nd for the trunk/glovebox. This nice 1967 Galaxie is a neat car that has been transformed into a Police Cruiser. This year incorporated additional safety features and also introduced a bend into the grill to try to get a less boxy look. The exterior is done in a two tone Black and White with Police lettering. It is a wrap so if someone wanted to take it back to more stock they could easily do so. On the roof is a set of sirens and Red/Blue lights which all function properly. All of the original style trim and bumpers are nicely mounted in place and in good condition. It has brand new American Racing Torq Thrust wheels with new Falken Pro G4 tires that look great on the car.
Turning those tires is a 390 V8 motor that has plenty of power. It is fitted with an Edelbrock manifold, Edelbrock valve covers, and triangle Edelbrock air cleaner. The larger Cruise-O-Matic MX transmission shifts smoothly with no issues. It is a factory power steering and AC car both of which are working properly.
