Because they ran out of clay after making the first badge when they made the model of the car during the design process.

I think it's because the dash sticks out more on the driver's side. I guess Ford thought it would be sitting too close to the edge of the dash, and would look stupid.

Ford saved every penny they could with the interior, the EA Ghias already had the state-of-the-art SLS, Multipoint Engine, stylish turboblade rims and "fancy" velour seats.
