1969 Ford Galaxe 500

No Reserve: 1969 Ford Galaxie 500 Sedan 429 4-Speed for sale on BaT Auctions - ending March 10 (Lot #67,662) | Bring a Trailer

this would be kind of cool.

 

Just a couple of bits and some one could turn it into a period correct unmarked cruiser.

 

Looks very Dano on Hawaii 5 0. I think his had a blue interior. Its very interesting that it has the am radio, but no outside antenna. ‘69 the standard antenna would have been mounted on the drivers fender. Neat car none the less

 

I'm just impressed you could still get a 4 speed in 1969 in a full size car. GM had all but discontinued the manual transmission in full sizers after 1968 (1969-1971 3 speed on the column only in ridiculously low numbers).

Sure looks neat and I'd not kick it out of my garage. Too bad about no AC...

 

Brochure indicates there were 2 429's available on the big Fords for 1969 - a 2-barrel carb version rated at 320hp, which was only available with Cruise-O-Matic; and the 4-barrel version which was rated at 360hp. It was available with either the Cruise-O-Matic or the 4-speed manual. There was also a note that you could get the 4-speed manual in ANY body style......EXCEPT a wagon.

 

Of course not! Can't make more work for the UAW rank & file.....

 

Also looks very "Ironside" too, like something Ed Brown would've driven....
