    Greetings,

    My name is Tom and I live in Bismarck, ND. I am new to this forum.

    Here are a couple of pictures of my 1962 Ford Falcon four-door station wagon. I wanted a funky kind of wagon, but not with an automatic transmission. I found this one. It has a factory four-speed on the floor which turns out was an option that was available mid-year in 1962 for the Falcon models. It has a 170 c.i.d. inline six cylinder engine. I can post more photos as the car comes along in restoration. It has been a long cold winter here in North Dakota so I haven't done any recent work on the car. The weather is now looking up, so I will be spending more time on the car.

    I am glad to be a part of this forum.

    Take care,

    Tom

    Nice looking Falcon, you'll have fun with that 4 speed. Does it need much work? body and interior look good from your pics.
