I did write it up at the old site, and thought about just re-running that one here, but my knowledge and feelings about the 59 Ford have evolved considerable since then. Which helps explain why this car is badged somewhat confusingly as a Fairlane 500 Galaxie. In fact, it would be the last time Ford sold more than a million full-size cars until barely squeaking past that milestone in 1969. How did theta happen Its quite a story too, as it was very successful, almost outselling the all-new batwing 59 Chevy. In the woods near my house was this example (same model as lead photo) which sat for decades. The 500 XL featured all components of the 500 including bucket seats and a floor mounted transmission shifter plus a standard 289 cid V8 engine with 195 hp.įord did not have a breakdown for individual models and their engine size. The required changes to existing works are easily made using graphic editors.
