\'69 Falcon trim

I was taking care of some loose ends that should have been taking care of long ago...side marker lights, trim along the rocker panels, etc. and I came up with two questions:

1.) I want to put displacement badges on the car. I'm not sure exactly where they should go. In front of the wheel well? Behing the wheel well? Up here? Down there? Anyone have pics of any '69 Fords showing the badges?

2.) Did the '69 Sports Coupe have any Falcon scripts? My other Falcons always had a block letter script - I think it was on the rear quarter. Did the Sports Coupe have them and if so, where should they be?

\'69 Falcon trim

I've never seen any displacement badges on 1968 or 1969 Falcons.

The Falcon emblems were in the same location on the rear quarters as a sedan or four door models and they also had a Sports Coupe emblem on each side of the roof between the rear side windows and the rear window.

EDIT:
Duh, they also had the Falcon emblem on the lower right hand side of the trunk lid also.

Did ALL '69 Falcons have the script trim?

I've been looking around at pics of other cars, I found this:



but I am not seeing this on any vinyl top models.

My trunk deck lid has an emblem in the middle with spear type trim from there to each side. There is supposed to be a script also?



I know the Falcon didn't have any displacement badges, but I was hoping to add some that I like. Were there badges on other '69 model year Fords?

Digging through the "old parts bin" I found two of the Futura scripts. I don't recall if they came off of this car or the other Sports Coupe (no vinyl) that I parted out. Guess I'll have to see if I've got pictures of that one.

My 289 badges were on the front fenders near the nose. I now have stick on "351 High Performance" in the same location. You should be able to see them here:

The 1968 FALCON incorporated the engine size with the front fender reflectors. For the 6 cyl the rear half of the reflector and embossed falcon figure. For the V-8's the rear half of the reflector had either "289" or "302", depending if it was an early or late model.
