  • There is a misconception that all Falcons share parts with Mustangs. Not so much with these. I review what you can swap parts from, including brakes and rear axles.
    Parts interchange files can be found on Facebook in the Forgotten Falcons group. Find our page and you will see a 'files' tab at the top. Click and download these free resources.

    This is Great! I've had a 1967 since 2016 and never done anything with it! I'm glad someone else finally loves this gen!

    This video definitely helped me out with this Falcon project. I haven't worked on many Falcons so I'm not very knowledgeable on them and the interchange of parts. I'm replacing the floor pan, rockers and right quarter, the floor pan was my concern and when I looked on classic industries and the 66 Fairlane floor pan looked identical to the 66 Falcon and I just wanted some confirmation on that situation for me. Thank you very much for all the info brother, I definitely appreciate it!

    The Australian Falcon wagon and Fairlane shares the same wheelbase

    1966 to Early 1970 Ford Falcons actually shares a lot of parts with the 1966-1967 Fairlanes.... ;)

    I appreciate the info! I have a 66 Falcon Futura that my dad bought for me in highschool. Now its in pieces in our shed but looking to start building it in a few years. I had no idea the chassis was based on the Fairlane. Good to know.

    Just picked up a clean clean 69 falcon going to build a sleeper but this is my first Falcon been looking at the Australian models guys fix them nice & run good.Want to keep it looking stock as possible, I've been looking at Open track Racing.I like their spherical joint upper/lower control arms set-up, looking for a nice K member to beef it up but maintain the factory load of the shock towers and frame some say roof transfer.

    I have to disagree that a 68 Fairlane/Torino dash will fit in a Falcon. I had a 68 Falcon. My dad had a 69 Montego, which was the Mercury counterpart to the Fairlane and Torino. They were wider cars than the Falcon. We used to have the service manuals for the 69s Fords and Mercurys, I used it to see how repair my 68, and for the most part, it was the same. There were differences, though, especially on parts unique to the specific year, like steering wheels.

      The Fairlane/Torino dash with the multiple round gauges does fit. Several people have done it and there is an abbreviated how-to file in the Forgotten Falcons FB group. I have not done it myself though.

    I need a complete floor pan for my 66 falcon. Do u have any idea what I need to buy ?

    • @mongrelmotorsports

      You can only buy individual pans. No one is making full floors yet. Autokrafters sells them.
