So - do you mean that the `62+/- Falcon having a "partial interior" was "pretty true to the day" !!?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

IIRC - everything ~ EVERYTHING ~ was "optional equipment" on them, right down to heat & rubber floor mats, let alone a radio or something! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

That's a '63 1/2 and the fastback models were typically optioned out. Ford used that platform and the comparable Mercury Comets as a test bed for the 260/289 small blocks and put together a remarkable record for endurance and reliability.

Great pic, really gives a sensation of speed.
