In highly urbanised Singapore, cars are a daily sight on the road. But every now and then, we come across truly unique ones that take our breaths away.
Recently, Classic Motorworks SG, a car seller in Singapore that specialises in classic cars, took a 5.3-metre long Ford from the 1960s for a spin in our Central Business District (CBD).
Needless to say, the car caught the attention of road users who must’ve thought they were in the presence of Don Draper.
Measuring 5.3 metres long and 2.1 metres wide, the 1964 Ford Galaxie is unlike any vehicle we typically see on our modern roads.
Pictured against a backdrop of modern buildings, the vintage car stood out like a relic from a time capsule.
Yet, despite it being decades old, the car remained a classy sight thanks to its simple and elegant shape.
Naturally, the car caught people’s attention as it was driven around Singapore’s bustling CBD.
While some motorists merely smiled at the rare vehicle, others went as far as to give a thumb’s up.
The retro vibes aren’t just limited to the exterior — the car’s interior is lined with beige leather that screams luxury.
Even its doors are made to look dated with bare metal surfaces and crank handles that require turning instead of a simple press.
Our favourite part of the interior is the speedometer, which resembles an old-school radio.
If you think that you’ve seen the car somewhere before, you’d probably recall it from the 2012 Men In Black (MIB) III movie starring Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, and Josh Brolin.
Driving the same car that secret, alien-hunting agents drove in the movies? You can’t get any cooler than this.
Now here’s the important bit — the car is for sale.
According to Classic Motorworks SG, the car apparently costs as much as a Honda Fit after taking COE into account.
The car has been listed on SGCarMart for $148,800
