That 63' wagon brings back memories. My first wife had one when we met in college, 1969. 260 with a 2 speed. I put a 271hp 289 into it with a C4. In 72', she traded it in on a Pinto. Dealer gave her $150 for it. The motor, alone, cost $300. Boy, was I mad.

I graduated in '63 and got a job at a Ford dealership as lot boy. The new Sprints were just coming out as well as Fairlaines with the "new" 260 V8 and four speed trannys. I got fired for testing one of the Sprints on the road behind the dealership............it was worth it, those little things were a blast to drive.

Love yours, very clean and subtle. Please post more shots of them.
Don

I have never been a huge Ford fan, but I always thought the Sprints were one of the nicest body styles around. Very nice rides. Thanks for posting.

Actually I think Ford called them a 63 1/2 along with the fastback Galaxy. It was the only year for the special top that was lower than the other Falcons and even took a special windshield if I remember right. Very cool indeed, and a 4 speed car which is cooler yet.

I owned one of those

Sprint with 260 and 4 spd. Came from the factory dark blue bottom and a white top. That was one fun car to drive. Thanks for posting the pics.
