700HP Big Block '64 Ford Galaxie from Ruffian Cars

Anyone that knows me knows I'm a massive fan of Chris Ashton and his builds from Ruffian Cars. This is the 3rd build we've shot with Chris and truly one of the most exceptional purpose built vehicles I've ever experienced. Full race chassis, powered by a Shelby 526 cubic inch FE engine with a dogbox transmission and every single inch of this build is to have a semi streetable fully capable big track car so sit back and enjoy the ride...

I’m a car guy who is not mechanically gifted AT ALL, lol. I can only add or bolt on what others have made...Watching what Chris creates, in his mind first, then as it screams to life, has got to be what people must’ve felt when a master like Leonardo da Vinci was creating the art that he brought to life. I’m genuinely in awe (and jealous as hell) of such imagination, creativity and mechanical ability. Kudos bro, your rides are amazing

If I had an extra mil laying around… I’d have him build me one of these! Its awesome! Good job Chris!

I love this, but would love it even more if it had an interior like a Bentley. Like a completely savage-but-comfortable GT car. Awesome work.

I'm 71, my first car was a one owner, '64 500XL. It was a 2 door, white over red & red interior. It had the 390 4 barrel, auto, floor shifter & console. Big bucket seats & huge back seat/trunk! Bought in 1970. Loved that car. This car is insanely built, beautiful!❤

I'm not a ford fan but damn that galaxy is mesmerizing just like the real galaxy. The attention to detail I unmatched. His every explanation why every item is placed in a specific position for a specific reason. How everything is there for a reason nothing more nothing less. I'm surprised they didn't say anything about the rear tail hook with yellow and F on ford emblem FU a subtle hint😂😂😂. You are 1 lucky man that is a beautiful car. Im also glad he says we and not i. Shows his appreciation toward his workers and their commitment of making the magnificent vehicle. Along with not taking all the credit for others giving him advice. I also like that he also shows the wall of shame. The best lessons in life are your mistakes in life. It makes you stronger and more resilient in the end. Kudos to this car build you and the team. Look forward to your other builds definitely buying a book. Thank you for showing this to the world truly appreciated.

[mikedean]

Man what a car! Chris and his team build totally cool stuff that obviously works properly too. Awesome!

[carl]

That's a bad ol ride and the person or people brought that Ford Galaxie to a whole new level compared to all the upgrades I've seen throughout the years with that particular year of a Galaxie. I've seen so many of em done so many different ways, this one is spot on

Comedian Joey Diaz says “American cars scream America”….this does that 100%👍🏻

[rhegafd]
