Custom Twin Turbo '64 Ford Galaxie Making Over 1,000 hp | Bones Fab

I've been wanting to shoot this car for a while now and I'm glad Jim worked out the time for us. This is such a cool, unique pro touring build. Wouldn't even consider taking this big of a car and making it a pro touring car with over 1000 hp but what Jim and his team did is incredible.
Enjoy!

One of the Best Designed cars of all time !

[@Bbbbad724]

My neighbor had a Springtime Yellow 64 Galaxie with a 61 390 and 4 speed. That car was vicious! His granddaughter was in the same grade as me and he enjoyed talking us to school in it. It had a 9 inch with leafs. He put the 427 long tubes with purple hornies and pipes out in front of rear wheels. That car was really gnarly. Her brother had a 65 Galaxie with the same engine and trans later. I rebuilt it for him. It had C0AE-D heads on it and whoever had it before put 2.11/1.6 valves in it and thinking about it the intake stems were 5/16 stem and flat faced. The factory may have done it. The left header had to be changed, so the guy who had them bought a 64 and they just traded, and they were perfect and the stainless pipes bolted right up, but Rick left off the mufflers and I put a 2x4,MR intake and a pair of Ford number carbs. A C8AX-D cam, solid and the matching springs. It idled so raunchy. The rpm was 1250, both carbs had T slots, and it was raunchy, but smooth. I t was dark green and a teardrop hood , it was a MR not a HR, but at 396 cubes, it would take a 375 hp 396 Chevelle. This Galaxie was really fast.

[@vincentcook5089]

I'm a huge Ford fan and this not only wet my appetite it left me wanting more! The body work and panel fit was just perfect. Twin turbo 1000hp - W-H-A-T!?! If I had a spare half mil laying around that's the car I'd spend it on. Just great content Shawn, another home run!

[@TheOrangeManGood]

Not gonna lie, I see a SOHC motor I click the like button.

[@AutotopiaLA]

[@AmericanThunder]

The teardrop hood doesn't hurt either

[@noahwilder6874]

[@scarbourgeoisie]

The '64 Galaxy is one of the best looking cars to ever come out of the 60's. Add some of Ford's coolest stuff like a SOHC motor (enhanced with twin turbos) with tear drop hood and then Men In Black will be knocking on your door, zapping you with that memory thing and driving off with it before you can say "J" or "K".

[@AutotopiaLA]

[@racer67]

This 64 galaxie is the best ive ever seen! I own a 63 galaxie and never really was into the 64's look but this car changed my mind!

[@ksman9087]

I used to have a '63. Both the '63 and '64 are great looking cars, IMHO. The quality on them was amazing for a car in their price range. Ford had started a quality program in '60 and by the '63/'64 models it was really good. I you do not think so, compare them to a Chevy or Plymouth of the same years.

[@mcflyer8150]

All that fine machinery and I spotted a Pinto up on the lift. That was my first car in high school.

I had to give him trouble about that one. Jim said it's mint and super low mileage. I still can't help but say "it's a Pinto!!"

[@jacksnyder7318]

I love the look and sound, now if I could get one with a modern fuel injection, hydraulic disk breaks front and back, modern power steering, modern sealed battery, everything run off a serpentine belt, turbo charged, super charged and posi trac or duel rear wheel drive and rust resistant aluminum frame and body : ) am I asking to much ; ) The first car I drove, as a 13 year old, in 1969, was my old man's 64 galaxy 352 v-8. He decided, after I stole a 68 Pontiac and crashed it, I better learn how to drive. Those cars were beautiful but you had to be, ( by today's standards) a mechanic to keep them running. Routinely check and keep spare hoses, clamps, check and service battery, engine oil, transmission oil, coolant, spare thermostat, check timing, (have timing light) carry tools, spare air filter etc. et'al. Just from memory, I'm missing a ton of stuff, I know, tire pressure gauge, patch kit, the list never ends, and for God sake, don't forget -Any- seals when rebuilding the carburetor !!! Those were the days, if you were a piston head and had a place and time to work on em, but most people had to go to work and didn't have time to fool with a broken down car. Love the video and trip down memory lane : )

Man, that land yacht just oozes power.....in all my years around hot cars I've only gotten to really look over a SOHC one time. What an engine! I wish that they would have gotten serious at Ford about this engine and made a zillion of them. Many times I've wondered if a gear drive for the cams would have been a much better set up for this engine. I suppose that the cost to produce these SOHC engines must have been astronomical even back in the day. Ahhhh.....what could have been...... Beautiful and powerful rig. Thanks so much for posting!
