Doug, you serious? The tail lights are one of the best features (aren't they all)! Unless you're talking about a facelift model, in which case I'd agree.

 

They're both good. The pre-facelift ones on that squared-off boot are more unique and in keeping with the original 1970s design, but the fiddly chrome around the back of the boot is a bit weird. In that sense, the single bold stripe of the facelifts taillights, interrupted only by the numberplate, are cleaner, suiting the overall cleaner lines of the facelift (from which many of the more dated elements of the original were removed).

 

I must say the facelift models are growing on me just a tiny bit. I'll always rib the owners, though

 

?
On what grounds? "Nice Ford ya got there"? Because them's fighting words, they is....

 

i like the pre HE tailights,, the facelifts just dont do it for me!
