Classic 1969 Ford Galaxie 500 Station Wagon For Sale on 2040-parts.com
Lynnwood, Washington, United States
Cash, serious inquiries only.
Except for a dent on the right rear fender, the body is straight. It is not running right now due to a dead battery and probably a defective solenoid (went out before the battery did a few months ago), but it is otherwise in running condition, and some restoration has already been done (rebuilt carburetor, new alternator, rebuilt gas tank; replaced a couple of rods in the engine). The engine is a 390 and generally runs OK, but it needs a main bearing. I don't know whether all components of the electrical system, i.e., heater/fan, lights, etc. are working. About 3 years ago, KC Martin in Lynnwood went through the whole thing mechanically and, other than the items listed here, it was in solid running condition. It has surface rust on both the exterior and the interior, but I don't think anything has eaten through.I also primed rust spots a couple of summers ago to prevent them from getting worse. The left driver's side passenger (2nd row) does not open, probably rust). All glass is intact. I removed the ceiling upholstery and carpets also a couple of summers ago to stop mold, and as of now, it smells clean and should be a healthy environment to work in. It is being sold for restoration purposes only. Mechanically, because of the defective main bearing/low oil pressure, you can't drive it more than 5-10 mph and for no more than maybe 5 minutes at a time; it is not going to work for you if you want a daily driver unless you rebuild the motor first. The main bearing probably went bad because it has likely more than 300,000 on this original motor and transmission. The transmissions shifted smoothly in all gears, though, the last time I took it up to around 35-40 mph and, also, in reverse. Since it is otherwise pretty solid, though, it would be a good foundation for restoration. It's been in the family for almost 40 years, so it needs to go to a good home. I will not deliver. You must come pick it up at its current location, Lynnwood, Washington. |
