Ford Galaxie . One of the rarest Ford muscle cars of all time. FACTORY 427-T R Code, 4 speed, is one of just four ever built. Specially ordered when new by the Police Chief of Austin, Texas as his personal car, it is equipped with the ultra rare 427-T/ 425HP R Code motor. The "T" is for "Transistorized Ignition", you may have seen a few R Code cars before, but how many 427-T engines have you seen?
Huge brakes, HD Kelsey Hayes wheels, 3.50:1 9" rear end, dual exhaust, HD cooling system, factory Certified speedometer, and the like. But being a Galaxie 500, and built for the Chief, this car has a beautiful cloth interior, full floor carpeting, and chrome for miles. The original rubber floor mats are still in place, and the added passenger's grab handle as well. The Chief also ordered the AM radio with rear seat speaker and reverb, tinted glass, police radio, a FULL complement of Stewart-Warner gauges in a special panel under the dash including yet another certified speedometer, and even full wheel covers! Since the factory wouldn't put A/C on a 427, the Chief had it installed at the dealership - and it still blows ice cold.
The best part is the condition. With just over 39,000 original miles, this car is 100% UNRESTORED and in perfect running showroom condition. The paint, interior, carpet, glass, engine compartment, trunk, chassis, etc are all UNTOUCHED perfect original. Look at the trunk pictures- that isn't a restored trunk and a new mat, that is original. All of the factory paint markings are still present on the immaculate and dry chassis.
This is a true time-capsule, you will never see a nicer original 1963 R Code car. It, of course, is 100% numbers matching with all "born with" components as you would expect a completely original and untouched example to be. The only items that have ever been changed are typical consumables such as spark plugs, filters, tires, belts, hoses, and the battery. Sorry, but I had to put on a K&N air filter to let it breath better. For you purists, the extra few wires under the hood are for the gauge panel under the column.
This is the car that even the best Ford Muscle collections are lacking. Don't think they ever made a 4 door muscle car? Think again!
