Watch this 1964 Ford Galaxie Baja Racer in action.

This old Ford Galaxie is not your typical hot rod or rat rod, in fact its built for a motorsport discipline that few would associate with an all American land yacht, however; driver, navigator, and car join together and give the spectators and us one hell of a show.

Built for the Mexican 1000, the Galaxia de la Baja competes in the Vintage Production Class, and in 2013 cam second in its class and sixteenth overall. This magnificent machine belongs to the Triple Nickel Racing team.
