Top 10 Cars We Would Love To Restomod

August 13, 2018

1966 Ford Galaxie 500

Ford’s Galaxie 500 is an iconic car. A superb convertible that has inspired countless works of art and a fantastic song, the car is a powerful, beautiful little pinup from the glory days of Ford. This car, on offer for $10K, is in fairly good condition and has had a bit of work done to it already. There’s already a new sound system, new header, carpets, dash pad, and so on. The body has some blemishes, but is fine.

The blemishes could be treated pretty easily, and the interior already looks nice, so we just need to take a look at the mechanicals. A new suspension setup, potentially with a new chassis, would be a good idea, and the engine is probably in need of change. You could follow this resto’s example, and fit a new V8 with 500 horsepower. While we’re at it, shaving the door handles gives the Galaxie 500 a special, refined look, so that might also be worth doing. Either way, you’d be left with a beautiful restomod.
