Almost looks Hemi-esque. Didn't Ford make a few 427 racecars with Hemi heads?

I think thats right, and the car sure looks like a 66 Galaxie, from what I can see.

Close enough guys, it's a '66 Ford Galaxie 500XL with one of the ultra rare 427 SOHC motors. The guy holding the hose is Astronaut Gordon Cooper. The other guy is Jacques Passino major domo of Ford Total Performance.
 
Ford wanted to run the 427 "Cammer" in NASCAR but they were outlawed. Some were allowed for certain NHRA Classes and a very few were installed in street machnes.

That just screams "Chrysler 300" with that grill. Too much.
