Introduced for mid-1962 as one of the "Lively Ones," the 500XL was a sub-series in the Galaxie 500 lineup (named after the 500-mile NASCAR races in which Ford was doing so well). Numerous drivetrain options were available from the start, including a four-speed manual transmission and up to 425 bhp. At mid-season 1963, the XL hardtop gained a sloping semi-fastback roofline (shared with equivalent Mercury's), and a four-door version was added. For 1964, styling was more sculptured and busier than the straight-lined 1962-63 models.
