Pedals? I wouldn't be surprised if they date back to the XR!

Starter motor? Possibly dates we'll back too.

I think my old EF XR6 interior light had a Ford and GM part number on the inside.

Starter motor on the six cylinder

I believe the starter motor is the same from the XA to the FG

Engine block really hasn't changed much..

Neither has the fuel filter..! Same one all the way through..!
From EF to FG it's the same Ryco Z373 (i think) fuel filter across the board.

Rear view mirror?
Water pump is the same too...

An interesting question....

I do know that most of the above answers are wrong. Many things look the same and fit/work between models until you pull them apart and see the insides.
While answers like valve caps, screws,wheel nuts and light bulbs are probably not what you are thinking of either...

I have both cars. The starter motors are the same, as is the rear view mirror, and I'm pretty sure the dipstick is the same too.

Probably not that interesting, but the dust/hub cover behind the wheels is the same.


Feel free to post up your own Falcon related quiz

The rear view mirror was the first item I thought of. However they did make some small changes to them in different models. Perhaps different part numbers as well.
