1967 FORD GALAXIE COUNTRY SEDAN SURF WOODY

When I was a kid about 5 or 6 my Granny had a 64 Falcon. Black with wood. I can remember walking along the tops of the fenders barefooted. If she saw me she would yell and threaten to whip me with a switch. That was back when people whipped kids with a switch. The good old days. My Papa was a mechanic and when the six got old he put in a built 302. My uncles would argue over driving it so they could smoke the tires. That car won a place in my heart that has lasted 35 years. I love a woody wagon.

Up for auction is my daily driven dream car. I am sacrificing it to go back to school so I can better support my family. I am not sad. I will get another one.

 I have personally watched people at car shows get out of their car and walk past numerous pristine show cars to see this wagon. As the feelings of nostalgia overwhelm them they open their mouth and say "When I was a kid we had one like this." My dad carried his surf board on the roof of something like this. I will gladly pass this torch on to the winner of this auction. This car is the epitome of cool. When I go to get fuel it takes 45 minutes because of the people wanting to talk about it. Or take pictures. If you do not like attention do not bid on this car!

This car has the ever faithful Challenger 289. This one is equipped with a 2 barrel carb for good gas mileage and BBK shorty headers with true dual exhaust, Thrush mufflers, and chrome tips for the get up and go. It sounds like a chorus of angels singing an old Metallica song. You should see the looks on peoples faces when I pass them in the fast lane on the interstate. This is a well maintained DAILY driven hot rod. You can literally purchase this car and drive it back and forth to work everyday, immediately after you get it. Some listings say "drive anywhere" this car is driven everywhere! Though it has been in some shows (and won awards) this is not a show car. You may call it a rat rod or street rod. It's just plain bad. It has some small dings and patina paint, about 4 colors of red, and the chrome is good but not perfect. The white on the roof is kinda thin in spots. This car makes no apologies. The surf and skate stickers, and the board on top, really draw a crowd.

I am the second (technically third) owner of this car. The original owners bought the car in Lasater Missouri and owned it till they passed away in the early nineties. It was eventually purchased in an estate sale by Miami Classic Motors and I purchased it through ebay and had it shipped to me for Christmas. At one point it sat in storage for 25 years. Hence the low miles. I have service records documenting the mileage.

I added the headers and exhaust. Professionally installed by a local speed shop. It has a rebuilt carb, new cap and rotor, condenser, points, plugs, wires, valve cover gaskets, 160 degree thermostat, fuel pump, brake lines, battery tray, wheel cylinders, headlight switch, dimmer switch, all lights, seat cover, middle seat belts, cup holder and a bunch of air fresheners. I like air fresheners. I have worked out all the bugs. The engine is freshly painted Ford Blue and the valve covers and air cleaner are freshly painted Thunderbird Gold. The original seat cover was in bad shape so I installed the seat cover like a new cover by disassembling the seat and contact gluing the covers on and reassembling. I have worked in several custom shops and all work is professionally done. It could us new carpet if you're into that sort of thing. I'm not. Also the rear door doesn't latch properly and the window switch doesn't work. The window motor works fine though. This car has factory air conditioning and it might work. I removed the belt when I got the car and haven't really needed air so I didn't put it back on. The wood was added to the car sometime in it's life. Country Sedans didn't come with woodgrain. The only mod I wanted to do but did not get around to is to cut one ring out of the front coil springs. I'll leave that to the next owner. Just please keep the hubcaps and don't put some new style ugly wheels on it. The tires were brand new when I got the car and are still in good shape. The windows are all in perfect shape and the cars shows no signs of being in any accidents.

Buy with confidence. This car is ready to go cruising. Paypal please and thanks for your business. Good luck!
