In 1964 my Dad bought a 63 1/2 and was special ordered with the dual quad 427, 4 speed and locker rear end. It was metallic gold with a white roof, and had white interior with with bucket seat and console and it was FAST. He was a serious drag racer in the '50s and '60s and in '57 had bought a Fairlane Custom 300 with the Paxton Supercharged 312 and 3 on the tree trans. Later in the mid '70s I had followed in his footsteps with a '67 GT Mustang Fastback with a Holman-Moody 427, 4 speed and 3.90 27 spline Locker that was putting out a true 630hp on the dyno that ran low 12's in street trim. I love that motor and was so lucky to have had one. Thank you so very much for the walk down Memory Lane with such a beautiful ride.

The 427 in its many modes was not an engine to be taken lightly and could best most of what Chevy and Mopar put out. At one point in time I had 3 of these magnificent motors and got a chance to actually play and see what they could do. The engines were a major effort for Ford and the engineering that went into the motors was a top drawer effort. The 3 different engines(low, medium, high rise) gave differing flavors to the engines. I applaud Ford for the efforts to tame a pure race engine for the street. Beautiful car and the black cherry paint is right on!

This car's a monster Lou. The big cam and exhaust cutouts sounded like fireworks going off under the car. In the late '70's my neighbor was in love with '63 1/2 Galaxies, and would make trips from Staten Island to anywhere down south to find rust-free examples. I'll never forget a white Q-code he came back with once- it was all original and looked like it was just driven off the showroom floor. He looked at me and said "now this one Tom, I had to pay $3,500 for, can you believe it? The prices are going through the roof!!" Cracks me up when I think about it. Awesome video Lou. Love the modifications this owner did.

Hey, Lou, not to be knit-picky, but at 04:34, you said, "You can see your hood release." That's not a hood release, sir, that's the parking brake release. On these '63 Fords, the hood release is that cool Ford emblem shield on the front grille that you grab and pull towards you to unlatch the hood. Too bad you missed that when describing the other cool details like the fuel filler door on the rear body panel, etc. Anyway, this is definitely a gem of a '60s factory high-performance car!

Really gorgeous car. Cool to see a regular Galaxie 500 with that engine option. I'd love to have a 1963 or 1963 1/2 Galaxie 500XL convertible. Probably my favorite car!! The 1964 is really pretty also.

Beautiful car Lou! Of course the same roof as my white 64 Galaxie fastback with a 060 over 390, so 401. I have a Howards Cams hydraulic roller 286 292 dur 560 lift, shortie headers and 3" exhaust with Jegs Flowmasters and cut outs. Yeah, it's too loud closed up. Opened up has gotten the cops called on me a couple times by a neighbor that is not a car person. Great video again as usual.

My buddy owned the car with dual quads. We spent Friday & Saturday nights drag racing on Woodward Ave back in the sixties. The only problem the engine had was if you missed a gear and the engine over revved it would bend one or more push rods and then we went limping home.

The engine sounds like it’s “spittin’ fire!” In the early sixties, a neighbour down the street had gotten a similar model. Although it was brand-new, it unfortunately had fallen on its right side off a “car carrier.” I remember seeing it in his garage with that side badly damaged. Once he did the body repairs, I’m sure it looked new again!
