G'Day Rick,
Assuming you have a car with a vertical windscreen, in other words not slanted, it sounds like you have what is known as a three window Fordor or a Town Sedan. If the interior light is round & is mounted in the centre of the roof it's a Fordor, if its oval & mounted above the rear window & the rear seat has a fold down centre piece, then its a Town Sedan. There are quite a few other differences, but this is one of the easiest ways to tell them apart. The Town Sedan & Deluxe Fordor were also fitted with cowl lamps which are mounted next to the band that wraps over the top of the fuel tank, whereas the standard Fordor didn't have these lamps.
