The Granada can be a start. The spindles and disk brakes will swap over. You'll need V8 control arms and steering. If I recall, the upper control arm was the same in 63 for both six and eight. You would probably be wise to rebuild the original if you want to reuse it. All of the 65 Falcon V8 manual steer parts are available new. The Granada steering won't work. You can use the old steering linkage with some outer tie rod adapters from Mustang Steve.

The Granada rear end is too wide but you can have it narrowed to fit. Ask Kenny where he had his done. The Granada spring plates won't work. They have staggered shocks. You would need to find a set of spring plates from a later 60s Mustang.
