Yup, I believe 1961-69 models all had them.
Oh, and it had power windows, power seats and AC. She was a loaded lemon. My parents called it "The Boat" as if it were an expensive investment, which it was. Half of my childhood it was spent sitting in the shop.

Those were tanks! The doors weighed more than what small compacts weigh today.

Smaller and lighter than a Navigator or a Suburban. Those are only boxy like they are because everyone needs shoulder belts these days. Each are 6 or 7 passenger.
It'd be lighter than a Porsche Taycan.

Not by much, in fact the numbers I looked up were all very close in weight and body length. You're also comparing a car to two large body SUVs. Apples, oranges.
A '63 Lincoln is not lighter than a Taycan, no matter how you flub the numbers.
