1963 Ford Galaxie 500
Gave this car the name Black Bart 20 years ago. On a cool summer evening you'll find me out every now and then, just pointing the front end down any ole road.

This was the only shot I had for now, in the spring when I unpack the shed and ready Black Bart for another year I'll get some better shots. He's tucked inbetween a 67 T-Bird and a 68 Galaxie XL right now.

Very nice machine! I can't think of a modern day North American car that has bench seats in the front. The bench seat was very handy when taking a girl to the outdoor movies.
And the whitewall tires.. back then, put the 'man' in manhood.
Thanks for posting, I was a mopar guy back then and my best friend was a Ford guy. We spent hours arguing about which was better. 8-)

Wow. At fifty, that's a beauty.
Can't say the same for me though. Born the same year, but certainly don't look near that good. A very nice car indeed.

Another great US-made product from 1963... just like yours truly.
I used to see these often when I was a kid- love those taillights!!

Wow man, She brings back memories of when I was around 4 or 5 when my pop would let me sit on his lap and steer that blue '63 Galaxie 500
up and down the lane. She's a real beauty ya got there! Nice work.
I am not a ford man,, let me finish! I am not a modern ford man. But I have a big spot in my heart for the 60's and 70's
Fords. Yes Sir.
Thank you for jarring some fond old memories.
