===Zephyr 6 Mark III=== {{Infobox automobile | name = Ford Zephyr 6 Mark III | image = Ford Zephyr 6 License plate 1965.jpg | production = 1962β1966 | engine = {{cvt|2553|cc|CID|0}} ''[[Ford Zephyr engine#Zephyr 6|Zephyr]]'' [[Overhead valve engine|ohv]] [[Straight-six engine|I6]] | body_style = {{ubli|4-door [[sedan (car)|saloon]]<]|5-door [[station wagon|estate]] (conversion)}} | related = }} '''Model numbers 213E, 214E (right- and left-hand drive)''' The Zephyr Mark III shared some of its mechanical components, as well as the basic chassis design, with the Mark II, but had a stronger overall body construction. The exterior was designed by Canadian Roy Brown, who had also designed the [[Edsel]] and the [[Ford Cortina|Cortina]], though the rear of the body was inspired by a design proposal by [[Pietro Frua|Frua]]. Unlike the Zephyr 4, the Zephyr 6 had a full-width grille including the headlight surrounds; overall body length and width were the same for both Zephyr III versions. With the same {{convert|2553|cc|CID|0|abbr=on}} displacement as before, the Mark III model had higher compression ratio, resulting in some {{convert|20|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} higher output, as well as a broader torque range. <gallery widths="200px" heights="150px"> File:Ford_Zephyr_213E_head.jpg|Ford Zephyr 6 File:Ford_Zephyr_213E_rear.jpg File:Ford_Zephyr_213E_tail.jpg </gallery> Only saloons and estate cars were made, the estate being a conversion by [[Abbott Coachbuilders|Abbotts of Farnham]].
