I don't have a V-8 one but I will certainly save the one that is in the front half of the parts car. I will keep my eyes open for a V-8 one too...

Steve,
I'm thinking to take a trip over there next weekend (this weekend is work :( ) so we can do a little more hacking on what's there.
Cool; I will have the sanding blocks ready.:BEER:
:ROTFLMAO: Funny one Steve. Four hours of driving time -- may get a few inches sanded for you. Or maybe I can just stand back and say -- "Hey, you missed a spot." [thumb]
Pedal assembly, 5 bolt bell, and flywheel are my biggest priorities
The clutch linkage and be bought new.. mustang parts but new..

Bought a pedal assembly clutch zbar and pivots from a 63 futura that was at the wrecking yard today.
I also snagged the heater box and turn signal switch.
It has a good pass fender, the futura dash trim, the padded dash trim, two back doors.
I also found a 65 v8 fairlane.
Itwas complete from carb to oil pan. Fan to rear diff. If anyone wanted to swap to a vi car this. Car has everything you need. Its a 289 car with a cruiseomatic. Anyone looking for a 5 bolt bell or complete tranny? Pullnsave in spokane wa has one.
I want to go back for the engine mounts if they will work in a falcon. I also want the driver side exhaust manifold..

So this should be the last post for this thread?? Here is what is left of the gray Ranchero. Roger and I sawzalled the last of it this weekend.
Yeah... or maybe "this" will be the last post. :p
It's sad to realize that the reality was the Ranchero we hacked to pieces was the "better of the two" when it came right down to it. But, the important thing I have to realize is I still could only have made only one good one from the two.
I brought the entire cowl and dash home this weekend from this gray car. The cowl is in really pretty decent shape. I wish (and I have not ruled it out yet) I could take the entire cowl - complete with dash - and swap the two without drilling 500 spot welds. I'll be looking closely at this very soon..
