My '65 had a swaybar and it was factory.  They became standard around 
'59
or '60, though IIRC the T1 Ghia had them earlier.

I've had two Bus swaybars break, and in fact our entire Invasion trip 
was made
sans swaybar.  I'm not going to put the new one on until I figure out 
why the last
two broke.  Interestingly, the Bus bar looks like it might work as a 
clip-on
addition to the T3 beam from the bit of staring-at-things I've done.
