1965 Galaxie 500 Information needed!

I recently purchased a 1965 Galaxie 500, z code 390 bench seat 4 speed with factory A/C. I want more information on how many of these cars were produced in the 500 model.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

Re: 1965 Galaxie 500 Information needed!

You can check production numbers on this website.  However, at the bottom of the page there is a disclaimer.
* Total Series production for ALLGalaxie 500's was 420,379 units both 6-cylinder and V8. Ford does not have individual breakdowns per body style.

Is '65 too old for a Matri report? Maybe Google Marti Report and see if they can help.

Re: 1965 Galaxie 500 Information needed!

Marti report does not go back to 1965, my info shows 150,185 Galaxie 500 V8 2 door fastbacks and 28,141 Galaxie 500XL V8 2-door fastbacks built that year. No breakdowns on seats, options, etc.
