cool old falcon van
 
i have had several vans thru the years..still have a dozen or so..and always loved them...i picked this one up several years back and still havent had the time to mess with it. i just thought it was unusual being a falcon..i guess that was just a trim option..my other old econoline is a supervan that i have sold too many parts from to restore now..:(..may try to get grandson interested in it..not sure the younger generation would be as excited about them as i was at his age, i would hate to see this old beauty keeps its job as a storage shed forever ha ha ha

With those side mouldings (introduced 1962), it could be any year from 1962 thru 1967.

The last 6 digits of the VIN is the vehicles specific serial number, decodes to the year and month it was assembled.

Some 1967's used the same oblong taillamps as 1967/72 F100/350 Stylesides, 1969/74 Econolines, 1967/77 Bronco's.

But if no side mouldings are present, and it has round taillamps, tellin' one year from another by lookin' at it is impossible.

My clue that it is a 63 or newer is the amber turn signal lense on the front drivers side.:-X04

Is that a bumper bolt on top of the front bumper next to the license plate?
If so, then it's a 65-67.
