1972 Ford Galaxie 500 Description

Long, distinctive, and exceptionally original, a car like this 1972 Ford Galaxie 500 offers you a standout vintage coupe. After all, with a premium look, time capsule A/C interior, V8 power, and less than 37k actual miles on the odometer, this is the kind of classic that is welcomed in any crowd.

These were the final years for Ford's famous Galaxie name, and their look is quite distinctive today. Next year's bumper laws would soon put an end to artful front ends like this one with chrome surrounding a full-feature grille and inset headlights. You don't see many of these around anymore, so it's even more impressive to have a survivor-like appearance here. The factory-correct red paint also shows the right signs of being the factory application. So while it's not perfect, it wears its originality with pride. And there really is a lot to love on this long coupe. Shining chrome bumpers, full-length pinstriping, and a well-fitting black vinyl roof are pure vintage premium that have been well-respected over the decades. And we all love the look of the classic Mag 500 wheels.

This car has barely averaged over 750 miles annually, and the interior really shows it. The presentation is highly original and exceptionally attractive. We especially love the vintage texture of the two wide bench seats, and as a true full-sized coupe, this Galaxie will seat six people with ease. The wood paneling has been preserved on the doors and dash to the level that allows this to retain its premium image. Ford's two-tier instrument panel puts all the gauges up high and the secondary controls down low, but the effect is very clean and driver-oriented. It's such a full vintage cool package that you'll love everything from the CB radio to the AM radio that's still there for display. This was also one of the final years you could roll-down all the windows for a true pillarless hardtop profile. And just to make sure you can enjoy this to the fullest, the factory air conditioning has been converted to modern R134a (will need servicing to blow cold).

Ford's robust 351 cubic-inch V8 provides plenty of power for the big coupe. Crisply detailed in Ford Blue, it appears quite stock. That means it's still ready to provide that effortless torque at any speed that defined driving a 1970s American V8. It also floats down the road like a good 70s machine should, and with a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes with front discs, this Galaxie 500 is a breeze to drive.

Preserved in all the places you want, this is a truly distinctive classic. So when an attention-getting survivor like this is also exceptionally affordable, you know you need to hurry to catch this deal. Call today!!!
