We have 2 great series here in Aus, this category Historic Touring cars, covering the types of makes and models raced here from the 50's through to December 1972, and also the Touring Car Master Series, covering cars up to 84. There's no shortage of early muscle on our race tracks thank goodness. :-)
We do, Historic Trans Am covering the old Trans American Sedans from 66 to 73, then the Historic Grand National which covers the old Nascar Grand National cars.
My uncle was a Ford dealer back then. He showed up one day in a new, next year's red Galaxie fastback. The only marking on the car was an "XL" badge. Pure factory hotrod. There's nothing like a big block Ford.
I turned wrenches at a Ford dealership where one of the other mechanics had the same 427 w/ 2 4's in a red 1963 Galaxie w/ a white convertible top. Thought it was pretty bad until we got a new service mgr who trailered up one day w/ an Austin Healey Bugeye Sprite that had, once again, a 427 engine in it hooked up to a B&M Hydro 4 speed automatic. Jeeez, those were the days!
Hey, Chevy man, thanks for the "side-oiled" compliment. We Blue Oval fans will take it. Like Dangerfield, "No respect... No respect at all!" But, all kidding aside, thanks. Both Chey and Ford made some monsters in the Sixties. But, of course, you know who we have to pay homage to... those damn Mopar fans! They, after all, started the whole horsepower race in the '50's! Damn, I hate to eat crow! Peace, my friend.
@James Avery: What exactly is your point, sir? Did I use the term “Muscle Car” anywhere in my post? Of course everyone that has turned a wrench or is a gear head know the advent of the muscle car began when John Delorean convinced Bill Mitchell to let him stuff a big block Pontiac 389 into the Tempest and viola, the muscle car is born, aka the G T O. Hope I got the CDI correct. I’m old and my memory is fading.
Additionally, to clarify, I believe I used the term “horsepower race” and said nothing about “muscle car war”. Not intending to be a smart-ass. Just trying to be accurate. Have a good night, Mr. Avery.
2nd best ride I ever had, sitting on my couch. The best ride was from a guy my Pop knew, who bolted a VHS camera to the roll bar of his 427 Cobra, (real thing. Not a kit car) and drove at Watkins Glenn.
@@BobbyTucker That 427 can run in multiple positions with just oil injection like My heavy OMC Johnson v8 2 stroke small block! Motul 800 2T synthetic oil injection!
Watching that big FE go to work on those straights was pure joy. You can't tell me FORD ever built a better engine architecture. Big block torque, revs like a small block.
They got a friggin 900hp v6 now same engine in the GT Ford Muscle Baby they learned some stuff from these bad ass old fe. motors and Windsor. coyote blocks went insane and now ecotek engines are flipping unbelievable
@@BobbyTucker should also add, father in law has a beautiful off white 4 door 1967 ford galaxy with a 390 sitting on 22's, not so rare but makes it more enjoyable to drive everyday and not have it depreciate on you
I just watched his again, and I see that the superior handling capabilities of that Ford, and the superior driving of Denis O'Brien who has the determination to keep his foot in it, long after the rest are backing out, make it hard to beat. Love that screaming 427!!!!
I owned the immediate predecessor of this model, the 63 2Dr Business Coupe version, with a 7,000 RPM Holman & Moody modified 427. "Light Weight" meant 3450 pounds; 300 pounds less than the normal version. Used it as a Street Driver. Sweetest Moment: The totally shocked look on a 289 Cobra owner's face as we pulled out from a Connecticutt Turnpike toll booth when, no matter how hard he went, I was still right THERE, next to his window!
Awesome drive buddy!! The power is so monstrous but you tame it so well.. Enjoyed every second of it screaming through 4th gear down the straight, the deceleration and patiently bleeding off the power... Quick burst on the pedal to drop down into 3rd.. feather it around to the left to maintain momentum..then brake for the shicane and drop to 2nd... Feather it around the tight left then gradually press on the pedal, ensuring straight-line stability before you drop the hammer and climb the gears.. Fricken pretty to watch man!! Think I'll watch it again! Thanks man!
I agree it is an incredibly wonderful sounding engine, but I was taught in school that a Motor is electric, and an Engine is a fueled with combustion process
Got to be pretty intimidating seeing that huge grill in the rearview, and not losing it in the corners, where big American cars supposedly suck. Especially knowing that as soon as you're in the straightaway, you haven't got a chance.
Braaap, running the 427 with BRP XD-100 oil. I would also run amsoil dominator 2T in my rotary and small block . I’m gonna try motul 800 2T next but the Xd-100 works fine. There is also BRP XPS oil too and can get it from any ski-doo dealer!
Just the sound of that massive 427 puts a smile in my face. Over 600 hp. and it was like Mike Tyson doing what he did during his prime, making short work if the competition. This was a very enjoyable video!
What a beautiful sound, gives me a Thrill and I am not even there or driving that screamer. There was several years in the 1960s when the 427 Comets and Thunderbolts won more than their share of Races at the Drag Strips. You Tube has many good videos of these classic Big Blocks still Thundering down the quarter mile.
Thank you! Glenn Everitt - Master of Machines. I just saw this video 6 weeks ago. Absolutely my favorite! I owned a 63 Galaxie 500 XL convertible with a 406 tri - power with t-10 4 speed. Purchased the car at a Chevrolet dealer I worked at in late 1967 at the age of 18. One of my all time favorite cars. Later on I owned a 1957 Ford Custom 300 with a 427 side oiler that I used to drag race in the early 70's. The sound of Denis racing the Galaxie brought it all rushing back! Mine sounded very close to the one he was driving. I watch your video at least once a week. I am subscribed. Cheers!
Having a 64 Galaxie 500 fastback and seeing this right hand drive dash is kinda surreal. I can't even imagine how rare that dashboard assy is. Man this car sounds great and he can drive!
Oil injected poppet valved 2 stroke on synthetic 2 stroke oi TCW3 burnoff with a VRO pump into the intake and ran in any position! Its a 2 stroke! Dry sump fed with oil injection into the intake!
No paddle shifters. No turbo chargers. No carbon fiber. Just pure Aussie power and a man with big balls that can run this car around the track like a maniac. Its beautiful. Hats off to our forefathers for the creation of the 427.
We built an 11.0, dual point ignition 352 engine that with a single 4 barrel took the 427 in a 64 Galaxy 500 4 speed in the 1/4 mile. Isky hi-lift full race wouldn't idle at less than 1700. Never found red line but was steady at 9500 rpms.
@@jimmartindale I haven't read a bullshit story that bad for a long time. For one thing a point ignition system will never work @ 9500 rpm, and second, I think the tach was broken! I didn't just fall off a turnip truck as I have built many successful racing and non racing engines over the years. Very few engines today will run at 9500 rpm let alone an engine from the 1960s If it makes you feel good to dream, then ENJOY!
Absolutely outstanding! It's been a long time since those big Fords were common sights, but they can still handle the newer technology go carts out there with ease.
flocking 2 stroke conversion here, oil injected with 2 VRO pumps and brapp total loss burn off with synthetic TCW3. i love poppet valved 2 strokes, hehe
what a high revving low torque POS with oil injection or cant it! Does it use crankcase scavenging or a blower with this mysterious 2 stroke? poppet valved loop scavenged or uni-flow, we will never know!
that was great ,i think he still had a little more power than what he was showing. I love watching and hearing these old muscle cars it reminds me of the old days of nascar when you had half the field with galaxie 500 . Man what sound of thunder ............love the video....Thank You
So cool to see this old iron dicing it up... Little known fact and often disputed or disbelieved by Mustang guys: The famed 'W' Code 427 'Side Oiler' was never available in a Mustang. However, it did come stock in the '68 Mercury Cougar GTE for about the first half of its (very limited) production run. These 7.0 Litre W cars are now considered the Holy Grail for most classic Cougar collectors. The remaining 'R' Code 428 CJ GTEs are no slouches either.
Total "Mustang Guy" here. But, you are so correct. What is such a shame, is that Cougar didn't get the graphics and total marketing that the Mustang did. But, Mercury was a step "UP', and Iacocca was not about to let his baby be out marketed! Love the Cougar Eliminator with the Boss 302... But it was no way as pretty as the Boss 302's of 1969 and 70... Get my drift?
Bart Borganelli, well being a ‘Cougar Guy’, of course I DO think the Eliminators are great looking cars - I actually had a ‘69 XR7 ‘what-if’ Eliminator tribute. But yes the shape and looks of the ‘69 & ‘70 sportsroof performance models are phenomenal and have always been my favorite Stangs. My favorite model Cougar is actually the ‘68 XR7-G, which is even more rare than the other specialty cars. They used a lot of Shelby components, and had a lot of specialized trim and features. Plus many (most) had electric sunroofs! But they got practically ZERO marketing. I think ONE ad in Motor Trend or something and that was IT!
Ford did a lot of 'end of run' engine installs in production cars back then. When I was just a kid ,working in the wash bay,prepping the new cars fresh off the carrier truck,I dealer-prepped a Galaxie wagon with a 427 dual 4 barrel engine and 4 speed floor shift,bucket seat car. Who ordered it or where it went is anyone's guess,but it was tough to not spin/burn the tires on this car. This was late 1964,'65's were already hitting the dealer's showrooms. With the Thunderbird 427 badges on it,It had to be an FE. Side oiler? Who knows. Station wagon? Go figure.
In the USA the early Shelby Mustang KR500 DID come with a 427, but partway through production (and without public notice) they changed to 428's. All the 'standard' Mustangs were 428 though.
@@samanthao1240 You could order the 427 for ‘65 Galaxies in any body style. In this case it’s an “R” Code 427 dual quad side-oiler and not the even more rare “W” code side-oiler that was developed for racing. Still a monster motor and super desirable. The tip off on real R-code Galaxies is they have special Pyrex covers over the stacked headlights. Tom Kotter, the host of Hagerty’s Barn Find Hunter found and bought a mid-60’s Ford wagon with the big block and factory 4-speed on one of his outings and used it as a daily driver.
Very entertaining! Enjoyed the video. Back in the 60's my older brother drove a lightweight 63 Ford Galaxie for Castner Ford in Wahiawa, Honolulu. However, it was setup for drag racing by Les Richie of Performance Associates, Covina California. He drove it at Kahuku, an old airfield which was used as a dragstrip in the northern side of Oahu. It was exciting to see such a large car go down the dragstrip so quick. Those were the good old days of drag racing.
Clayton Char thanks, great MUSCLE CAR/ Ford comments.. I HAVE, worked and went to PURDUE UNIVERSITY witH GREAT PEOPLE,FROM THE ISLANDS, ETC. ANYWAYS, INTERESTINGLY, A ***FORD GALAXIE 1963 and 1/2 Scat Back , (* 427/ BLACK/ BLACK/4 speed)oF Classmate really introduces me to CARS AND MUSCLE.. when I was in WOLF LAKE High School( Noble County INDIANA)....Rumor has it there was more than one FORD StationWagon 427s of 62/63 also......?....
Thank You for that story. It was wonderful to read. I miss those days even though I was only a kid in the sixties, my Dad was a FORD FAN-addict. Everyone in my family on both sides where GM people. But not my Dad. He has a '63 1/2 Rangoon Red Galaxie 500 XL. Man that was a stunning looking car.....even to this day.

That is one bad-assed 427! That 63 Ford was the fastest car on the straights, it blew away the Mustang GT and Porsche. The driver did a great job, there were some terrible drivers that he had a difficult time passing. It took him forever to catch and finally pass the Mustang GT because he was blocked in, but with both the Mustang and the Porsche, when side by side on the straightaway, he flew by them. The sound of that 427 motor winding out was just great! Fantastic car, superb driver, great video. Thanks for posting it.
Goosebumps, static hair and a hardon, FE firing order tunnelports and boomtube exhaust, sound like motohead , 50 peice orcesstra version, in the townhall

Ford Galaxie and Light Weight in the same sentence is crazy but gotta love it.
These full size Fords from the 60s are among the best cars ever to race they're so huge and powerful
I love it! No chit-chat or stupid music. Just the sound of 600 ponies screaming in fury.
its may be 4 stroke here but its 2 stroke in the 4th dimension. engines speak to us and teach us lessons!
She got low gear rear end and with that much power he is just Bearly on the gas peddle !

Not impmressed a modern 2 stroke sled motor makes more than 3hp per CID. this 427 poppet valved 2 stroke does pretty good.
I could listen to that sound for hours and get the chills every time it goes up to 7000+.

Oil injected poppet valved 2 stroke on synthetic 2 stroke oi TCW3 burnoff with a VRO pump into the intake and ran in any position! Its a 2 stroke! Dry sump fed with oil injection into the intake!
@@jlo13800 Baaaaah!..........that would sound like angry bees. We want a deep growl, not something that pierces our eardrums.
What a monster...
That has to be the biggest rush. Nothing but catching and passing.
Gotta love the sound of a road racing big block Ford rowing through the gears ⚙
Its cool that even with a roll cage and a full race car build, he still has door panels, window cranks, and a headliner.
No paddle shifters. No turbo chargers. No carbon fiber. Just pure Aussie power and a man with big balls that can run this car around the track like a maniac. Its beautiful. Hats off to our forefathers for the creation of the 427.
Proper cars,proper drivers,proper racing,top class, proper brilliant.
I'm in love with that car! Now there's the Australian 427 I've been looking for.
That 427 sounds awesome!
Absolut legendary Ford power....427...best sound engine ever👍💪
Great piece of driving, that 427 Cammer engine sounds amazing. Just the best sounding Ford V8 ever .
Not a sohc engine. In block cam.
We built an 11.0, dual point ignition 352 engine that with a single 4 barrel took the 427 in a 64 Galaxy 500 4 speed in the 1/4 mile. Isky hi-lift full race wouldn't idle at less than 1700. Never found red line but was steady at 9500 rpms.
@@jimmartindale I haven't read a bullshit story that bad for a long time. For one thing a point ignition system will never work @ 9500 rpm, and second, I think the tach was broken! I didn't just fall off a turnip truck as I have built many successful racing and non racing engines over the years. Very few engines today will run at 9500 rpm let alone an engine from the 1960s
If it makes you feel good to dream, then ENJOY!
Best part of this video is watching this full size, heavy, (albeit modified) Ford scream pass that Porsche like it was backing up.
Horsepower advantage. With another gear and more brakes ... watch out world!
Absolutely outstanding! It's been a long time since those big Fords were common sights, but they can still handle the newer technology go carts out there with ease.
My old man's got the 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 XL with the 390, still rides like a gun. love the Galactic collection!
No replacement for displacement. God bless America.!
flocking 2 stroke conversion here, oil injected with 2 VRO pumps and brapp total loss burn off with synthetic TCW3. i love poppet valved 2 strokes, hehe
there is no such thing as a 4 stroke joke its all in your mind, get over it!
what a high revving low torque POS with oil injection or cant it! Does it use crankcase scavenging or a blower with this mysterious 2 stroke? poppet valved loop scavenged or uni-flow, we will never know!
It can be tilted to any position and run at any rpm since it is a dry sump fed 2 stroke!
Great saying=May I use it??
that was great ,i think he still had a little more power than what he was showing. I love watching and hearing these old muscle cars it reminds me of the old days of nascar when you had half the field with galaxie 500 . Man what sound of thunder ............love the video....Thank You
So cool to see this old iron dicing it up... Little known fact and often disputed or disbelieved by Mustang guys: The famed 'W' Code 427 'Side Oiler' was never available in a Mustang. However, it did come stock in the '68 Mercury Cougar GTE for about the first half of its (very limited) production run. These 7.0 Litre W cars are now considered the Holy Grail for most classic Cougar collectors. The remaining 'R' Code 428 CJ GTEs are no slouches either.
Total "Mustang Guy" here. But, you are so correct. What is such a shame, is that Cougar didn't get the graphics and total marketing that the Mustang did. But, Mercury was a step "UP', and Iacocca was not about to let his baby be out marketed! Love the Cougar Eliminator with the Boss 302... But it was no way as pretty as the Boss 302's of 1969 and 70... Get my drift?
Bart Borganelli, well being a ‘Cougar Guy’, of course I DO think the Eliminators are great looking cars - I actually had a ‘69 XR7 ‘what-if’ Eliminator tribute. But yes the shape and looks of the ‘69 & ‘70 sportsroof performance models are phenomenal and have always been my favorite Stangs. My favorite model Cougar is actually the ‘68 XR7-G, which is even more rare than the other specialty cars. They used a lot of Shelby components, and had a lot of specialized trim and features. Plus many (most) had electric sunroofs! But they got practically ZERO marketing. I think ONE ad in Motor Trend or something and that was IT!
Ford did a lot of 'end of run' engine installs in production cars back then. When I was just a kid ,working in the wash bay,prepping the new cars fresh off the carrier truck,I dealer-prepped a Galaxie wagon with a 427 dual 4 barrel engine and 4 speed floor shift,bucket seat car. Who ordered it or where it went is anyone's guess,but it was tough to not spin/burn the tires on this car. This was late 1964,'65's were already hitting the dealer's showrooms. With the Thunderbird 427 badges on it,It had to be an FE. Side oiler? Who knows. Station wagon? Go figure.
In the USA the early Shelby Mustang KR500 DID come with a 427, but partway through production (and without public notice) they changed to 428's. All the 'standard' Mustangs were 428 though.
@@samanthao1240 You could order the 427 for ‘65 Galaxies in any body style. In this case it’s an “R” Code 427 dual quad side-oiler and not the even more rare “W” code side-oiler that was developed for racing. Still a monster motor and super desirable. The tip off on real R-code Galaxies is they have special Pyrex covers over the stacked headlights. Tom Kotter, the host of Hagerty’s Barn Find Hunter found and bought a mid-60’s Ford wagon with the big block and factory 4-speed on one of his outings and used it as a daily driver.
Awsome car. Always love the ford 427 sound and performance
PERFECT. Well done Denis and thanks Pete for presenting this. I was on the edge of my seat watching this.
That old boy can drive. He's the master of that transmission. Upshift, downshift, like silk.
And LEFT HANDED AT THAT - OF COURSE THOSE ENGLISH CHAPS GREW UP WITH THAT ODDITY.
@@RobertWilson-td7eb Aussie that is. Sandown Raceway in Melbourne.
My life is complete, THANK YOU!
Brilliant driver, that car a monster to handle. And the howling 427, unreal.
Awesome ride along. Pretty impressive for a heavy car.
There's no budget race cars, some are just more expensive than others. Excellent drive !
Now that's what fossil fuels are for!
Amen to that Andrew!
Fossil fuels for fossil cars?
I APPROVE.
Haha!
GO FORD!!!!@
Fossil fuels made of pure bald eagles!!!
Big girls like to dance, too!
Now that's funny! I've heard that they need loving, too!
They are pure hell on shoes though
I've watched this video at least 5 times and I get a kick out of it every time. It just gets better!!!!!
Very entertaining! Enjoyed the video. Back in the 60's my older brother drove a lightweight 63 Ford Galaxie for Castner Ford in Wahiawa, Honolulu. However, it was setup for drag racing by Les Richie of Performance Associates, Covina California. He drove it at Kahuku, an old airfield which was used as a dragstrip in the northern side of Oahu.
It was exciting to see such a large car go down the dragstrip so quick. Those were the good old days of drag racing.
Clayton Char thanks, great MUSCLE CAR/ Ford comments.. I HAVE, worked and went to PURDUE UNIVERSITY witH GREAT PEOPLE,FROM THE ISLANDS, ETC. ANYWAYS, INTERESTINGLY, A ***FORD GALAXIE 1963 and 1/2 Scat Back , (* 427/ BLACK/ BLACK/4 speed)oF Classmate really introduces me to CARS AND MUSCLE.. when I was in WOLF LAKE High School( Noble County INDIANA)....Rumor has it there was more than one FORD StationWagon 427s of 62/63 also......?....
@@opera93 I've never heard of any 427 wagons from those years, but I seen a 67 427 wagon in a drag racing magazine years ago!
Thank You for that story. It was wonderful to read. I miss those days even though I was only a kid in the sixties, my Dad was a FORD FAN-addict. Everyone in my family on both sides where GM people. But not my Dad. He has a '63 1/2 Rangoon Red Galaxie 500 XL. Man that was a stunning looking car.....even to this day.
AHHHHHHHHHHH MAN .. I WAS AT SCHOFIELD IN 63 64 65.... TRACK WAS SOEMTHING ELSE.... WE USE TO RACE APC'S WITH 426 HEMIS IN THE DOLE PINEAPPLE FIELDS... PISSED THE LOCALS OFF.. HAHAHAHHA TORE UP SOME PINEAPPLE PLANTS... MAN... 64 65 WAS FUN TIMES IN OAHU....GIRLS WERE SCARCE THO...HAHAHHAHAH
DO YOU REMEMBER THE "YACAPINS" THAT OWNED A FOOD STORE DOWNTOWN WAHIAHA.. MOM AND POP.. STORE
That is one bad-assed 427! That 63 Ford was the fastest car on the straights, it blew away the Mustang GT and Porsche. The driver did a great job, there were some terrible drivers that he had a difficult time passing. It took him forever to catch and finally pass the Mustang GT because he was blocked in, but with both the Mustang and the Porsche, when side by side on the straightaway, he flew by them. The sound of that 427 motor winding out was just great! Fantastic car, superb driver, great video. Thanks for posting it.
I thought the driving was brilliant great patience with the small pests.
I don't know which was more of a machine the man or the car , what a team! 👍🏿
Flawless downshifts from a surprisingly free revving hulk of an engine - great driving!
The sound! Glorious.
I love the Sound Of the Big Ford 427. Thanks for the Video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Goosebumps, static hair and a hardon, FE firing order tunnelports and boomtube exhaust, sound like motohead , 50 peice orcesstra version, in the townhall
Wow this guy sure can drive not to mention his engine builder is genius!!! Has a monster for an engine really makes that high end power "427"🇺🇸💪
Unfortunately the video will never tell the whole story of what it's like to hear,smell &feel the pure excitement of the muscle car era! Thank you for sharing
Hang in there, one day "they" will be able to introduce smell, and when they do....OH MY!!!!!
He's hunting them down hey? Hahahha... way to go, great skill and that 427 sounds glorious, nothing quite like the sound of a well tuned V8
What a fantastic sounding beast. That's just superb.
That FE just SCREAMS down the straightaways !!
This has got to be my most favorite video. Love that old 427 screaming down the straightaway!!!
What a great sound that 427!!!!
Very Cool. Lots of understeer. Monster from the good old days.
