Where are you? Talk about unique! I see it has the amber turn signal lenses out of a 1963.

Replying to: blown62falcon (Jan 03, 2007 7:46 pm) Amber turn signal lenses came out in 1963. A lot of people switched lenses however.

I never noticed the difference in turn signal lenses before. Is it possible that the amber lenses was a mid-year change? I just noticed something kinda interesting, that I never noticed before. It looks like the turn signal lenses on MOST cars are actually clear, just with an amber bulb. I never really noticed that before. Now side marker lights have amber lenses (at the front at least, but red on the rear quarter panel), but the turn signals on the front of the car are actually clear. |

1963 was the year they went to amber lenses although just a few cars used clear lenses and amber bulbs back then. I'm thinking, that Falcon would make a FINE addition to your fleet!

Was not always accurate. 1962 falcons came with clear lenses from the factory but a lot of people switched them out. They were probably MADE in 1962 however, hence the date. |
