New to me Reply #16 – August 01, 2010, 01:03:48 AM I would love to have a Futura!It was originally a downsized Tbird prototype. And yes the custom black Futura shown is da bomb! Most of the dash is already a Mustang. All you need to do is swap in a full gauge cluster and a couple of dash trim plates. Matter of fact the full Mustang gauge cluster and console was offered as an option on Fairmonts. The Futura grille was purposely designed to mimick the 1960 Thunderbird grille. I keep saying they should have held off two years and made this the downsized Tbird for 1980. It would have made more sense with the same basket handle roofline of the 1977-79 Tbirds. I think customers would have accepted this more than the actual 1980 that we got. The 1983-86 LTD front end is a great looking direct swap for this bodystyle. A 1981-82 Granada front end will work too but it's not as attractive. Quote Selected

What makes it is the basket handle roof design related to the 1977-79 Tbirds. I still love them and I remember when they first came out. I wanted one. I was too young way before I got my driver's license in 1980. Quote Selected
