When I was stationed up in Minot N.D. with the Air Force there, I purchased a 1964 Ford Falcon van with an automatic transmission. It was pretty much a wreck of a van but I drove that van for about 6 months before selling it off. It was a neat old van! I also owned a 1970 Ford F100 Pickup that I really loved driving. It had a 302 in it that was freshly rebuilt prior to me purchasing it. I wouldn't mind getting another one but in 4 wheel drive.

Long story. My first car was a two door 1962 Falcon Futura with the Thunderbird roof option, white with red bucket seats and a center console. Car was purchased by my grandmother's cousin brand new. She then sold it to my grandmother who drove it for many years. While she had it my father swapped the the 170 ci 2 speed automatic to a Mustang 200 ci 3 speed automatic. The car was given to her daughter, my aunt, who drove it for a bit until a drunk driver ran into the back while it was parked and into a tree. That's when I acquired the car at age 15. The car was 14 years old at the time. My father helped me straighten the car, taught me body work and mechanics to get it back on the road. We painted it red and silver and put a silver half vinyl roof on it. I drove it with an 8 inch steering wheel, no power steering a couple of years in highschool. The car then went back to my aunt and her daughter drove it in highschool and part of college. Then it sat. I acquired it back again with plans to someday make a street gasser, but ended up loosing the car due to some neighbor's complaint to zoning about it and other vehicles sitting by my garage. Really wish I had it back or one just like it. Hope you enjoyed my little history of my first car.
