There's something appealing about this clock within the "clock".

Not that I recall, and I usually do! Maybe some time ago on "Tartan travel rugs and other nostalgic motoring accessories" it may have had an outing. :-D

I have just posted that today Jim. No mention at all anywhere in the FCF of parking lights before today :-D i’ve looked and come up with a big fat zero. You are the first person ever to mention parking lights of the type we are talking about on the French car forum, and that was today Thursday 30th November 2023 :!:

An example of the interior view of a Morris Cowley, Falcon Family Car number 2! sometime in the 1960's. Like it now more than I did at the time.

Image
That will be, a bench seat in finest vinyl, a white-ish (ours was white!) steering wheel, a column change, nice clocks, a floor dip switch, no heater.

The clocks are very nice, not easy to find a decent image
