1939/40 Ford Flathead V8 with a supercharger.Moonshine Express

I hqd a friend in high school (we graduated in 1965) who drove a 1963 1/2 Galaxie 500XL 406 dual quad (His folks had WAY woo much money). He never took it to the local drag strip, but on Friday night, the Dodges still had more, but the 409's (as long as we had more than 1/4 mile) never shut him down. The soul of this car came at the other end of the road. As you head out of town, the roads are a mile apart. He had already figured what car dealer or grocery store was about 120 yards past 440 yards. Worked almost every time!

My uncle had one of these back in '63. I was 14 at the time he took me for a ride in it and really got on the gas. I'll never forget that ride. I've had a lot of fast rides but that one stands out as unforgettable.

You simply cannot beat the sound of these classic cares. Sounds much like a go-fast boat. Love it.

Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories for me. In 1965 my Dad brought home a 63-1/2 Galaxy XL 500 with a 427, 4 speed. It was factory metal flake gold with a white top, white interior with bucket seats and floor console. It was special ordered by the owner of our Ford dealership in Sarasota, FL. He would take my older brother and myself out for cruises...he was a drag racer in the 50's and early 60's and had even bought a 1957 Fairlane Custom with the factory supercharged 312 brand new. I loved that Galaxy and in 1976 I had a 1967 Mustang GT Fastback with a Holman-Moody 427, 4 speed and 9" Locker Rear. One thing you were wrong on was the red line...the cross bolt main 427's would easily wind to over 8,000rpm all day long as they were developed for NASCAR and turned that on the track. I reved mine to 8k when racing for 3yrs and never hurt it. I wish I had seen this when you first put it out as I would have have bought this fine ride in an instant. Thank you again for the walk down Memory Lane and for the sweet video.

I had a 62 Black Galaxy 500 XL with black buckets. 406, 4 speed, 3-2 barrels, 4:56 limited slip in 1965. Looked and sounded great!

Man, that sound when you stand on it - stupendous!

Had a 63 fast back,,390 ..high school days of the past

Sweet. I never had anything like this beast, but I was a junior in high school in 1968 and had a '63 Galaxie 500 XL 500 2 door with the original roof and factory bucket seats, automatic in the floor, dual glass pack exhaust, 352 engine and many of my friends wanting to buy it from me! Loved that car. Thanks for the memories.

That sound bleeds red ,white and blue.God i love America.

Now that is one STUNNING motor vehicle! Who cares if it's been modded... after all, they are period correct mods. It is absolutely perfect.

Beautiful Classic in every sense of the word. It is wonderful that some collectors of classic big blocks were able to preserve both the factory 427 and 1963 Hardtop in perfect condition.

My friend had a 63 1/2 Galaxy 500 fastback. I had a 63 Impala SS. This was in 1984 so even then nobody had cars like that. He had a 289 3 speed on the column, black with a red interior just like this one, so no matter what the motors were, to actually just own one of them was really great

Many years ago while still in high school, a buddies dad bought him a brand new '63 Galaxie, two-door sedan (sleeper), 406, 4-speed. My buddy had the coolest dad in the world!

Too - Too KEWL!!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank you for making this recording and posting it. Those were, indeed, the days!!

These were the cars of my childhood. I finally got to have my dream cars A Shelby Mustang And a Shelby 427S/C.

Every little town had a Ford dealer. The brother of our neighbor ran one in a tiny town in Coles county, IL. He special ordered a ‘63 Country Squire 9 passenger with the 427 dual 4bbl and 4 spd. tranny, through his brother’s dealership. Beautiful car. It had the blue XL interior with buckets too.

No one who races shift by tach, you shift by sound. Awesome car!!

My goodness I'm DROOOOOLING!!! That is just incredible. You know some shine runners utilized this exact car. That exhaust tone is to die for. Damn I wish I had the scratch for that ride. Truly a dream bucket list check off.

I am a real Ford Fan, this is a great example of a Blue Oval. Thank you for this great upload. FORD, LINCOLN "KEEPING AMERICANS WORKING"

Hell...when you rolled the vent window crank, that brought back memories. Those things were awesome!

I have a picture of my father as a young lad standing in front of a brand new Ford Galaxy that was my grandparents first new car!. It was the same color etc etc.. I constantly here my dad talk about getting one and having it restored to original condition. So I think that I have found the perfect Father's day gift for him and hope that I can pull it off.

My older friend had one. He invented the Tarantula twisted intake where the carbs sit a little sideways. He ended up as head mechanic for Mercury Marine after working on the newer corvette engines. Quite the innovator. It was a wheel stander and the car I learned to drive in. What a ride, he usually ran Cheater Slicks on the street for cheating.

Was 8 years old when my Dad came home one day with a brand new 63 Ford Galaxie 500 he bought for my Mom. He bought it off the showroom at Frank Dore Ford in Whittier, CA. It was a floor shift automatic with a 390 engine and bucket seats. That car stayed in the family over 30 years and was a hot rod the whole time.

Okay, I'm a old fart. So, back in the day. My buddy Joe had a '63 Galaxy 500. Came with a 390. He found a crashed 500XL in a wrecking yard, with a black interior. Bucket seats, console, etc. We got the whole interior out of it. It was black and perfect. We managed to get all of it in without mishap. He pulled the old 390, which had a lotta miles, and was showing signs of old age. He rebuilt the engine with a mild cam, 11 to 1 pistons, porting and a nice balance job. This old car surprised a lot of people who thought that they had fast cars. I still remember the throaty sound when you stamped on the "loud pedal"

TheRatshooter - Nice post about home made muscle car / sleeper. This would be a great thread to start ie "My favorite sleeper". In 1967 I talked a gear head buddy of mine down the street to build a wicked sleeper. I found a 57 Chevy 210 4 door post in light green that was owned by a school teacher in our neighborhood. He went to a wrecker and bought a nice 427 Corvette motor and rebuilt it to near radical street machine level. The car had dual quads, headers, full flow muffler system, 4-speed, posi, racing clutch, big radiator, scatter shield, very beefed up suspension and brakes, tach and gauge panel ect. Except for traction bars, wide rear rims, and cheater slicks the cars appearance was bone stock. I don't have to tell you a lot of guys got a nasty surprise. I think the most beautiful thing about that car was the sound coming out of what looked like little school teacher stove bolt. The best part was the investment was minimal to build a bad ass machine.

Rebuilt the engine in Junior college machine shop with used parts. Installed it and after break in put my foot in it at a stop light... scattered the three speed...went to another junk yard and got everything from the engine back out of a wrecked 427 car...cost $250.00. Put stock wheels with full hubcaps on it with a set of Lutz cheater slicks.....passed it off as stock...left the column shift in place....had a single Carter AFB with 352 air cleaner and valve covers.. looked stock under the hood....had a blast playing with all 327" Chevys in town. I lived in Santa Rosa CA next door to Petaluma where A.G. was filmed...yes it was like that back in the day!!!

A great car. I've seen a very few at premium prices. You mentioned the hood. Most 63 & 64 Galaxy 427 had a raised hood to vent heat with some having a center bubble hood. If memory is correct. It also provided more height for the tall air cleaner covering the high rise intake and air cleaner. I believe the single quad 427 was rated at 410 HP and ran quarter-miles around 14..0 remember. This is a big and heavy sedan. I'm not sure about the dual quads 427 (full race engine) other than it was rated at 425 HP. Thanks for sharing a great piece of history

That's not exactly true. They had supercharged 312 "Y" block motors as options in 1957. and a 430 c.i./400 hp MEL available up and down the Lincoln/Mercury line in 1958. The FE engine started life as 332 c.i. and debuted in 1958 which was the basis for all the variations of 352's, 390's, 406's, 427's and 428's. Yes, Robert Strange McNamara had to go. He walked in one day and made the command decision to tone things down by forcing engineers install two barrel carburetors on Lincolns and everything. All this when everybody, including FoMoCo, was on a tri-power kick, among other things. Talk about having to "work around" an individual!

That is one bad ass Ford! Video's fine brother, keep'em coming, 🇺🇸 MERICA

Hello all, seeing the comments wow! Yes it originally was a 352, but it is a real deal FE motor stuffed in there. It is as hotrod as it gets for the 60s. It sold within 1 week of listing it up. This was one of the cars I never wanted to sell. I appreciate all the kind words from the gear heads all around the world. It does have extensive race history, and was signed by some of the greatest. This car was a blast to film. Sorry Im young and can afford and drive all these cars while you haters type your rude comments. The best part is I love what I do and get to drive something different every day. I built this company from Nothing and if you have to dislike and tell me how to film my cars, I think you should go buy some of my inventory and show me how to do it properly :-).

Very nice car. I’d sure love to have it. Screw the haters. Most of them couldn’t afford an original 427 Galaxie, anyway. Some of them probably drive a mimi van or their mom’s Camry.

No need to be so petty. You are listing on a publically available site. So you are open to public comment good or bad.

Thank you for the wonderful video and sound! This is as close as most of us will ever get to experiencing one of these vehicles, so keep em coming :)

It is so great. You are a lucky man. This is the most greatest car that I have never seen... Congratulations from Ecuador.

So beautiful, wow, thank you

dual quads ... gotta love old school go fast parts!!

I had a '59 Chevy Biscayne two-door with a full house 348 (tri-power,etc.) that bowed to few until these 400+cubic inch beasts came along. I was 21 in 1963 having some of the best times of my life. Great cars, great girls, last of the peaceful times.

I would love to own that. It would be one of the most enjoyable hours of my life! If I made out of hospital afterwards in one piece, I'd buy another and do it again.

Even as a chevy guy i gots to say this thing is vicious!

Incredible deep paint and one of my favorite engines too. Long ago at a race engine machine shop where I worked we had a 427 Fairlane Thunderbolt engine for some work and it had "the best" parts in it, including lightweight stainless intake valves and Sodium cooled stainless exhaust valves. It was what I call a "lust object".

The Thunderbolts were equipped with the 427 “high riser” engine. Very special for sure.

Deep paint on a '64 Ford? ROFLMAO. Yeah. It's as "deep" as an FE is "fast".

So it had the typical truck motor exhaust valves like all Ford-Edsel truck motors regardless of the "performance level". A "lust object" ? Were you "driving" a skateboard at the time?

Nice to get a driver to really show what it will do.

Now, that's a classic I can respect. So clean and all business. :)

Fantastic dream car for me. Watched Bobby Oltoff race at Kyalami against Ford Cotina GT's, Alpha"s and various others, you could always hear it coming over the 4 cylinder cars. In 1963, the only thing holding it back were the brakes.
