Muscle Car Of The Week Video Episode #160: 1965 Ford Galaxie 500R Code 427 V8TV

Some Ford Galaxies were meant to be family cars... you know, smooth riding, quiet, fairly efficient utility cars indented to get the family from "A" to "B" with minimal fuss and in comfort. This one, however, is a little different. It's still a pretty comfortable ride, but thanks to it's no-frills package and dual-quad 427 and 4-speed driveline, you get to "B" much faster! From The Brothers Collection.

AWESOME GALAXY. I WAS BORN IN 65. THAT CAR IS BEAUTIFUL.💜 FORD BUILDS THE BEST.

[@brucebyrnes5996]

Love all the " R " code Fords!

[@LasseHuhtala]

That was a *very* respectable wheel spin at the end there. Holy schnikies.

[@Baylorbetterthanbrown]

I'm a Ford guy and this is my all time car

[@mechanknuckle]

Tears of pure joy from 05:31-05:40. I love the big brutes you guys exhibit as much the mid size and smaller cars. Honestly, I'm pretty damn tired of Mustangs and Camaros. Let's see The Bro's pick up an SS 427 Impala or Sport Fury GT. Even the under appreciated cars like a '68-69 Torino GT or '69 Cobra, maybe a AMC Rebel Machine. Even starting to highlight non-muscle classics would be cool at some point. "Muscle Cars & More" Let's face it, it would be cool to check out beautiful examples of ANY car from that great period in American automobiles. 1974 AMC Matador X coupe anyone???

[@earthtruthhunters1642]

Mechan Knuckle Buddy of mine owned a Matador in 76. Cruised Northern Ontario sideroads many times in that kitten.

[@radioguy1620]

Sitting there the car looks ready to leap forward !!! great style

[@creekjonsun]

Those headlight covers were also used on the 7 Litre Galaxies (With 428 motors) :)

[@Pillowcase1977]

Absolutely the most beautiful

[@erichite4871]

Full size muscle is awesome!

[@opera93]

Thanks, like my 1965 Galaxie XL/ 4 Speed: though I had 352, AM RADIO, PS/Pb( I had to,add Metallic Brakes and Coolant Recovery system( in1968 ?) that Ford has brought out, etc....Same Burgandy Color/ XLHubcaps (that rattled noisily).... had about four years,,,,fun times...

[@chocodiledundee1]

Brother I love your work man , you do what I love the best , you tell all the details and give all the info , that's prime ! It's a hot looking Galaxie indeed with the engine to match ! Thank you

[@realmaindrianpace]

One of my favorites so far. Spoilers and stripes are cool and all, but a plain jane that could be a straight six doing a block long burnout is where it's at!

[@radioguy1620]

noticed the nearly 1/2 inch fuel hose on the driver side engine bay splash guard,. great design car so much better than the 65 Chev

[@montymatilda]

What a wonderful piece of history! I love this body style although I am partial to the LTD with all the options and a fast 390. I wonder if you could even get the 427 in an LTD. IIRC, the 428 didn't happen until '66. This color is beautiful. I also remember Ford had vinyl interiors from '59 to the late '60s the would almost last forever. Really tough. Their weaved plastic cloth wasn't too bad as well.

[@RoscoRide]

Fantastic car and another great review!

[@V8TV]

Thanks for the positive feedback!

[@waveridar007man9]

great video i use to build the 427 in these cars and fairlanes. i race that engine form when it came out in 1963 to 1972 and had that engine in my cobra jet

[@kloner]

jay leno's favorite. and 'a rery vare ride inded' 5:25 lol Kevin. good stuff as always.

[@V8TV]

You caught that, huh? LOL!

[@chocodiledundee1]

kloner "Too much perfection is an aberration " from the movie "EL Topo"

[@gocubsgo7609]

Yes sir I would get excited.

[@jessandkaka]

Awesome

[@mechanknuckle]

My FAVORITE Muscle Car Of The Week... Period- end of story.

[@abe2571]

A proper burnout.

[@leightonfarms4962]

beautiful

[@barbaraowens3852]

I have a black one with a 352 runs great

[@devonboyer6054]

It’s one of the best!!!!

[@rickmalone411]

I look forward to MCOTW every Friday. Thank you so much for keeping the Friday's enjoyable after a long week. At 16, Dad bequeathed his '67 Galaxie XL, detuned with a 351M, but that was fine. That Yellow-Gold paint and awesome black interiors, the way the doors shut, the chrome trim around the door window glass...all spelt quality. Ok, when's that Gold Yenko coming up? Aztec Bronze is my favorite, but Gold is my muse! Thanks so much for all the hard work, Rick...

[@c.rincon7145]

Awesome car!!!

[@knucklebuck3924]

had a 66 galaxie with a390... miss it

[@55ou812]

beautiful!

[@TheFrameoff]

Very nice car ...

[@kodiakwoodworks9359]

I have a 65 galaxie 500 LTD two door with the 390 Tri-power. It is white with a pastel blue interior. It is a very straight zero rust beautiful car. I love it but have to sell it. Very sad times.

[@chocodiledundee1]

Darren Clark far out , I hope you keep it bro that's a hell of car !

[@jeantetreault132]

Like you say, i dig does nice cars too, but at the age of 52, i sometimes regret the fact that I was born a little too late. Boy! I sure miss the era of the 1960’s muscle cars. I don’t care much about today’s cars on the market. I’ve only got eyes for Mercury Cougars, Ford Mustangs, LTD, Fairlanes, Lincoln, Galaxies and Thunderbirds. On the other hand, I like certain Mopar products and General Motors as well. Anything from the 1960’s, I’ll take it. Lol! Thanks for this download. Johnny, Montréal, Québec

[@jimolson8424]

Back when you could slap the throttle & burn the tires to the rim with out holding the brakes to get to spin. FOMCO POWER FOREVER,, I have been addicted since 1961 .

[@jeremythompson9895]

That raucous R-Code 427 sure didn't sound like a Rolls Royce goin down the road LoL Another awesome car from you guys....keep up the good work

[@earthtruthhunters1642]

God bless the 65 Galaxies. Awesome beast it was and is. I was blessed to own a 66 Galaxie 500. Only a 289 but what a beauty!

[@michaelballard4095]

This car was made for the super speedway like Talladega. Screams stock car racing.

[@V8TV]

Sure does!

[@boogrbear9224]

My uncle ordered one these, same color as this one. However it used a quart of oil to a tank of gas since it was new.

[@Dunkaroos248]

Sounds like it needed new rings

[@pauleannetta4063]

Never seen a duel quad 427 r code growing up in the 60s. The biggest ford I seen was the 390 Torino. Buy em all!

[@MrJett1971]

In answer to your first question…yes, yes I would. All. Day. Long.

[@slimjim119]

I like both big and smaller car with the bigger engines and big fan of the sleeper

[@jacichosz]

You said Rery vare

[@V8TV]

Yep.. been noted.

[@stromeurm7410]

2:18 Must be a teleprompter under the hood

[@V8TV]

No prompters in this production! Maybe we'll post the outtakes...

[@biscayne427]

I'm a Chevy guy, but I'd prefer to see more stuff like this over another cookie cutter 1st gen Camaro any day!

[@davestone983]

Hate Ford's, but you gotta love this one.

[@chocodiledundee1]

Dave Stone Fords done some amazing cars bro , like all the three , Dodge , Ford and Chevy they were fiercely head to head with each other back in the days .... That was a racing completion times !

[@montymatilda]

@@chocodiledundee1 Don't forget Plymouth as part of the lower price field, direct competition. Dodge was a step up.

[@thomasjordan5578]

Any such thing as a 427 calmed and refined for grand touring style use instead of drag racing ?

[@scottwiler8881]

great car would like to see 68 and 69 impala ss hide away headlights 427 4 speed manual would like to see 68 or 9 Chevrolet suburban 2 door 427 4 speed manual transmission bucket seats console Buick Rivera mid 60s clamshell headlights sorry just part of my wish list thanks for all the cool vehicles America made the best

[@rrmech11]

There all cool Kevin. Now that your asking,do the brothers have any Pontiac Catalina's 2+2's with the 421 cu.in. motor?

[@ZEZERBING]

Boy, that master cylinder looks mighty small against that engine.

[@danw5414]

What do I think? At 5:30 what do you think!

[@pzkpfwivfreak2473]

a rary vare ride indeed. 5 min 29 sec.

[@wendellworth353]

The 65 Chev impala 396 would smoke that Galaxie like it was a city bus.

[@Requiredfields2]

What about the 7 on the grill denoting 7 liters?

[@markjones9631]

Jay leno has a 66, like his dad and mom let him pic out dome options 427 muffler delete .

[@nick1122]

How many people looked that up

[@williemoon7522]

[@mfsb8473]

Coolant leak at 4:41?

[@jamesbond9873]

[@knucklebuck3924]
