Already proving itself during the 1963 NASCAR Championship, which they subsequently won, Ford ordered the construction of approximately 200 lightweight Galaxie 500s mid-year intended for drag racing. The R-Code cars featured Ford's dual-quad 427 V8 with close to 425 horsepower. Ford's Merchandising Manager, one V.P. Motto, issued a memo calling for the construction of this car - added to the big-block 427 was an aluminum-case Borg-Warner T-10 4-speed, fiberglass body panels bolted to a lightened steel frame, aluminum bumpers and a stripped out interior, and a raft of delete options, such as the heater. All but one car was delivered new in Corinthian White with code 95 red vinyl interior.
