1961 Ford Galaxie 500 Sunliner 77054 miles
This 1961 Ford Galaxie 500 Sunliner is a classic cruising convertible with a big V8, plenty of old-school flair, a terrific color combo, and an A/C interior. But what you'll really find attractive is the quality presentation seen over every inch of this restored drop-top. It had to be in top condition or else it would not have been held in the private collection of one of the best classic Ford gurus around. Long and sleek, this is the classic American droptop that instantly conveys speed and elegance. The black paint really drives home this feeling. The trim tag tells us this is a factory Raven Black car, and it has been restored to one of the highest standards you are ever going to find. That's because it was restored to live up to an expert's level of scrutiny. Dennis Carpenter was in the classic Ford parts and restoration business for decades. He built a reputation for quality, and this car comes out of his private collection. In fact, it has been held in long-term care because he purchased it in the early 1980s. So if it was up to his standards, we bet you're going to be impressed, too. All the brightwork is quite good: the bumpers have a mirror shine, the intricate grille is complete, and the rear panel artfully fills the space in-between the jet-inspired taillights. We especially love the full-length side trim. It's an elegant style that emphasizes the straightness of the sheet metal. It ends in a sporty and bright ribbed panel that joins with the rear fender skirts to deliver a detailed sleekness that can't help but attract attention - no matter if it's on the highway or parked in your own collection. The crisp white convertible top gives this one a timelessly attractive contrast against the paint and goes great with the white walls. But with the flip of a switch, it gets even better.
