Best Answer

The 1962 Galazy 500 equipped with the 406 V8 with either a single 4 barrel or 3 dueces would be considered a muscle car by some. These Fords were overweight when compared to the Pontiacs of that year so Ford built 11 lightweight Galaxy's which weighed less than 3.400 pounds. These were definately muscle cars. In 1963 Ford introduced the 427 V8 which replaced the 406 V8. With 425+ H.P. this was most certaintly a muscle car. But the Galaxy was a heavy car and could not really compete with the Pontiac's and Chevy's. So the bottom line is that with the right engine and some lightweigh components it was a muscle car.
