I bought a 1962 M-code galaxie convertable M-code 390-401hp 4spd It has of ton of options power windows, top, seat, skirts, rear antennia, etc. Does anyone know much about these? I am a hardcore chevy guy and need some info? Anyone know anything bout these. I have talked guys on 62 galaxie registry but no one seems to knows much about them.

The engine was offered only for the early part of the 1962 model year for the big Fords then it became an option for the Thunderbird line. A 406 in single four-barrel and 3x2-bbl. forms replaced the M-code on the full-size Fords. The T-Birds with the M-code engine were rated at 340 hp@ 5,000 rpm but in the Galaxies it was rated at 401 hp@ 6,000 rpm. The Galaxie version had higher compression - 11.1:1. What is the condition of your car?
