I am selling an all original numbers matching 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 black plate car that was purchased at Harrold Ford in Sacramento in 1963. The family that owned it used the vehicle for several years before moving up to Klamath Falls, Oregon. The original owner's son was given the car, and the 352 cu. in. engine was rebuilt along with several other restoration points. I have a binder full of all of the work done on the vehicle from 1965 to present as well as registration cards, this is a WELL documented vehicle. The car was purchased in 2001, and I used it as a daily driver during school. I still have a set of four snow tires mounted and balanced that will go with the car, they were used once. Since I have owned the car, I have added several accessories including front and rear bumper guards, center hood strip, tissue box, the clock was converted over to a quartz movement, 4-barrel Edelbrock carburetor with performance cams, Petronix system to eliminate points and condensor failures, and many other detail points to list. A great deal of effort has been made to still keep the car as factory correct as when it left the assembly line in 1963. I am probably leaving out some points, but I believe the pictures will speak for themselves. The car is not 100% perfect, but for it's age it would take very very little to make this a true 400 point car. I am selling this car as I do not have the time or money to enjoy it anymore and I believe it is time for someone else to have the opportunity to own this true survivor. I have seen comparible Impalas sell for more than what I am asking. I believe for the history that this vehicle carries, that the price is more than fair, but I will consider serious offers. I also may consider a partial trade for a nice driver condition vehicle of the 1950's or 1960's.
You can reach me by email at: str8226@yahoo.com for questions, additional pictures and also a video link of the vehicle running.

Auto industry insider previews tell-all book, What Did Jesus Drive?
Tue, 11 Nov 2014
"It's about some of the biggest crises in history. It's about who did it right and who did it wrong." - Jason Vines
Jason Vines, the former head of public relations at Chrysler, Ford and Nissan, has seen a lot during his more than 30-year career, and now he's offering a behind-the-scenes look at the auto industry in his tell-all book What Did Jesus Drive? that went on sale this month.
2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]
Sat, 28 Jun 2014When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."
Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns
Wed, 22 May 2013Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.
