Title reads 1964 - ford station wagon TAUNUS 12m not 427 gasser or 1960 1962

The auction is for one historic, original vintage survivor 1962 ford TAUNUS 12 M (not Taurus...) station wagon with two (2) doors. The car was found in a California, storage lot with the correct original black tag plates, then brought to Arizona to restore, but things in life have changed....

This is car was German produced ford, and those knowing the Taunus models know it was not imported to the US. The story can be shared to the buyer....

As seen in the photos, this car is in need of restoration or drive as is, with a little work. The fuel pump and carb were removed, keeping them clean, and gas tank is open ready for new fuel... of course as with all older cars, brakes need updating, some hoses, tires, battery etc to making it street safe, so for the purpose of this auction it is being sold AS IS and not street safe without a complete review, and repair of needed components.

Currently the car will not drive, without, fuel items, battery, tires etc it did run, before all the parts were removed.

additional input added March 20,

motor confirmed to being a 1500 TS model, (what ever that is)

front disk brakes factory correct, with a 5 lug wheel pattern on 13 inch rims

engine bay, 99 % factory original, wiring, clamps, hoses, etc.

the actual car year is 1964, not 62, and all the paper work shows that to being correct as does the title read 1964, - I should have checked the papers first, my error.

all original factory glass, with original head liner, is super condition

while not in photos, the original factory carb.. fuel pump & air cleaner are in the car and available, they were just removed to keeping fuel out preventing fuel clog.

sorry for the confusion on my part I can no longer change the main description title to correct the year to 1964 - sorry
