Q: Greg, I have a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4-door sedan. It has a 289-V8, 83,500 original miles and automatic transmission. It also has power steering, no air conditioning and a factory radio. It is in good condition and road ready, and has always been garaged. I purchased this car brand new from the Ford dealer. What do you feel this car is worth? Thank you very much. Hugh P., Humboldt, Kansas.
A: Hugh, I'd say your '66 Galaxie 500 is worth in the neighborhood of $3,000 to $3,900. Of all the Galaxies that year, yours is the one that is worth the least, but I wouldn't let that bother you too much. There are Ford collectors out there who would love to have your car. Just for the record, the '66 Galaxie 500 with the 427 engine is worth about $28,000 to $32,000 in pristine condition, and $12,500 in good condition. There are also Galaxie 500 XL and LTD models that year, all worth about $2,000 more than the standard sedan models. Hope this all helps, and thanks for the nice comments.
