This 1968 Ford Galaxie 500 two-door hardtop is finished in light beige with red flourishes and powered by a 302ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. The interior was reupholstered in black vinyl under previous ownership, and modifications included installing adjustable air spring suspension, FiTech fuel injection, an Alpine CD stereo, and a Kicker amplifier. Additional equipment includes 13″ wheels, a Grant Classic steering wheel, and fender-mounted spotlights. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in October 2022, and an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale. This Galaxie 500 is offered in Florida with a clean Wisconsin title.
The body is refinished in light beige and accented by red flourishes. Additional exterior details include chrome bumpers, fender-mounted spotlights, amber driving lights, headlight visors, polished dual exhaust outlets, and Galaxie 500 and “Lowrider” badging. Paint chips are visible around the rear window, and the selling dealer notes imperfections on the left door.
Chrome 13″ wheels are mounted with 155/80 Maxxum Radial whitewall tires. Braking is handled by drums at each corner.
The chassis has been fitted with adjustable air spring suspension featuring dual compressors and a trunk-mounted air tank.
The front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered in black vinyl, and additional work included replacing the carpets and installing an Alpine CD stereo connected to a Kicker amplifier. Additional amenities include manually operated windows, lap belts, woodgrain trim, and Mooneyes rubber floor mats. A sicker is applied to the ashtray door, and Hot Wheels badges adorn the door panels.
A Grant Classic steering wheel fronts a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and a gauge for fuel level. An Autogage tachometer is mounted to the left of the steering column, and auxiliary gauges are housed in a pod beneath the stereo. The five-digit odometer shows 54k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The 302ci V8 features FiTech Go Street fuel injection as well as a chrome-finished air cleaner and valve covers. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission. Additional photos of the underside are included in the gallery.
