Tips On The Best Fords To Modify

1968 Mercury Cyclone GT Passenger Side Front View
The next version of the Fairlane is shown here in Mercury Cyclone incarnation. The slippery fastback roofline worked out well at the racetrack, and the famous NASCAR Talladega was based on this body style.
1964 Ford Galaxie Wagon Driver Side Front View
The full-sized Ford Galaxie makes an excellent restomod. This '64 wagon is an awesome example with its shaved exterior, custom paint, and oversized rolling stock. This big car has plenty of room for everybody, and the FE engine provides plenty of power to get the radical wagon moving.
1963 Ford Galaxie 500 Rear Taillight View
With such exquisite detail, the full-sized Fords were almost like a factory custom. This rear taillamp assembly is from a '63 Galaxie 500. You won't see this elaborate ornamentation and attention to detail on any modern car.
1961 Ford Galaxie Starliner Passenger Side Front View
Another full-sized favorite with the restomod crowd is the Galaxie Starliner. This '61 version has been modified with a 427 SOHC engine and rear wheeltubs to accommodate full slicks.
Ford Galaxie Starliner Passenger Side Front View
The Starliner doesn't want for interesting detail either, and these falling stars on the rear-roof pillar are just one example of the detailing on these beautiful cars.
1967 Ford Galaxie Hardtop Passenger Side Front View
With first generation Thunderbirds going for over 30 grand, you'd think folks would be afraid to modify them, but this is not the case. This '55 Thunderbird is looking good with just chrome reverse wheels and baby moon hubcaps.
1955 Ford Thunderbird Driver Side Front View
The Galaxie was restyled in 1965, and this is the '67 version. This hardtop with its elegant styling and fastback roofline makes a good-looking subject for modifications.
1955 Ford Thunderbird Passenger Side Front View
This very yellow '55 T-Bird is the next step up the modification chain with a 385-series big-block engine and custom wheels.
1957 Ford Thunderbird Driver Side Front View
Here is yet another '57 Thunderbird gone the restomod route. The wire wheels and unusual hardtop are two interesting features, but the big highlight on this car is the 427 SOHC engine.
