No, Kerwin, it is not.  The panel that you are recalling was 
factory-installed on all 1964 and 65 FC models, but was a simple flat 
piece of sheet metal with a few bends and holes in it.  It's purpose was 
a "splash shield," to prevent slush and ice buildup on the pedal 
linkages and other controls.

This eBay piece is quite a bit more complex in shape, and the seller's 
description does not thoroughly explain to me where/how it fit.  I have 
never heard of this, I have never seen this, and without seeing it 
as-installed or without backup from someone such as Dave Newell, my 
fundamental reaction is, "Huh?"
