The 406-cid Galaxie was Fords choice to compete in the NHRA A/FXC class. This car was the production/homologation version of Fords effort in the Super Stock wars. This 406-cid G-code V-8 produces 405-hp with 448 ft/lbs of torque, and features 11.4:1 compression, a solid-lifter camshaft, factory cast-iron headers and three Holley dual-barrel carburetors. It is mated to a four-speed transmission with a 9-inch Ford traction-lok rear end with factory 4.11 gears. This Galaxie has had a stunning and accurate frame-off restoration and is finished in Wimbledon White with a Mist Green interior. In addition, it features period correct American Racing Torque Thrust wheels and has been autographed by Dennis Gage of My Classic Car. This car is a stunning example of the early 1960s Super Cars that thundered down the drag strip.
