Default What are the interior dimensions of a 1965 FB 2+2

I've always been interested in classic Mustangs, and recently spotted this 1965 FB 2+2 that looks in pretty nice condition. I was curious if anyone could tell me what are the interior specs of the classic 60's models and 70s models. By the this I mean head room, leg room, and hip room for both front and rear. Also what is the gas mileage of a 65 Fastback? Yes I know they aren't a car bought for mileage. Also for someone who isn't very knowledgeable of cars I was wondering what exactly does the 2+2 stand for/mean?

EDIT: I was just thought of something else, but I was wondering does the steering wheel stick out more than modern cars? Or does it just appear that way because it isn't covered by a bunch of plastic?

Some of the mustang club websites have old advertisement stuff on them to look at. Also do like a google search for "1965 Mustang Fastback specifications and dimensions "you might find it. I used to have all that info but not any more. Also some of the Mustang parts houses have lots of good spec books. The 2plus2 was a designation for the fastback. Basically same as coupe or convertible but has no rear quarter window, had air extracters, longer rear window, different back seat configuration, for example. A typical 289, not a HP, should get 12-15 miles gallon as long as your easy. Thats what I get out of my coupe. The steering wheel is usually larger and does come out farther than on newer cars, keep in mind back then, most cars had power steering as options, unlike today when its included in almost everything. The steering wheels were that way to get more leverage when turning with no powersteering.
