Ford was not big on wasting stuff.

It is likely the stuff that failed production specs got used someplace.

I would not be surprised if items that failed production specs got put out for replacement parts. It was ok for a mechanic to spend time fitting, but not the production worker.

My brother believes some of the stuff that people bought NOS laying the shelf for decades may have been on the shelf because it never fit.
