    I love how the remote control rear-view mirror control is made into the dash by the headlight switch.

    This big pic shows the Convenience Control Panel with all of it's PW switches, and the PDL switch.

    Thanks David! For only owning it for a short while, I sure am proud of it.

    Very rare.
    Don't understand Ford's thinking on this, though. The PW controls on the doors would have been much easier to use for the driver than reaching down down to the dash. What was the reason for integrating them in to the SCCP?

    My 1968 Parklane Brougham didn't have all those bells and whistles. I bought it in early 1969 with 1,200 miles on it (dealer's wife's car). Loaded but not like your wagon is. Very nice and very rare options. Congrats.:thumbs2::bowdown:

    Oh Krash! Don't you know?...FORD :idea: has a better idea!...or so they thought! :coco:

    Logic has nothing to do with this...they are an ergonomic nightmare...and totally fabulous all at the same time!

    Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it. Im in the process of finding a new engine for it due to the main bearing. It runs and drives though. Drives very smooth I may add!
