I'm with Overnite on the HD.

Check the rear lights and pedestrian catchers on the front.

Futura had upmarket trim.
Squire was the wagon with the woodgrained sides.

You had different model designations than we did up here. The Stateside Futura was a high trim sporty Falcon often with performance power.

I think FUTURA was the name of the 2 door Falcon that first came out - not a trim designation.

They resurrected the name later to mean a special trim.

I seem to remember all hardtop 2 doors of the early 60's were just called Futura.

Then again, memory does deceive!

Lang, I think you're right that the Futura name was only used on the two - doors, but I thought it was a trim option above standard. Some research required....
