These three are all very nicely styled designs but I much prefer the roofline, nose and tail end of the 63 1/2 Galaxie.  The '62 edges out the '64 for second place by just a nose.

1963.  At this moment in time, the cleaner and simpler, the better.

63 for me, really like the grille and headlight treatment best of the three. 👀

I am surprised, but I voted for the '62. The '63 has always been one of my favorites. But the T-Bird-like roofline on the '62 and it's leaner looks got my eye...this time.

Well guys, I don't often vote a TIE, but on this one, I VOTE TIE.  After the incredibly (to my eyes) ugly 1961 Ford, these three years just rocked for me.  When 1965 came along, again (to my eyes) Ford was back to ugly.

I can't pick one, so it's a tie for me.

I have to go with a tie also on this trio. I like them all.
