Luv the lines of the rear door (no wheel well arc) and the roof line reminds me of the Crown Vic. Looks like power windows and door locks! Also luv the dash mirror .

 Hmm, hadn't thought of the power locks. I was thinking that extra switch might be power vent windows.

Here's something I never knew about these cars: they didn't have the typical turn signal lever off the steering column.  You would activate the turn signals by a rocker switch below the transmission buttons... I wonder how many people would have accidentally shifted to first (low) gear when trying to turn on the signal...

I believe the door locks were vacuum actuated on these cars.
