Back in the mid seventies , I was living out in Denver / Lakewood Colo area. An old room mate had one of these 66 Falcon Rancheros, it was done up in the Ford ( call it pastel green ), with a 289 V8 under the hood. And NO rust, what a sweet machine it was!!
ALL 66 through 70 Falcons were 66 67 Fairlane based. Falcon wagons were Fairlanes with a Falcon front clip and simpler interiors, instrument clusters and taillights.
@@2001rams they had almost nothing in common from the windshield forward except for all the understructure. Tee hee. Hand me a ratchet set and a Phillips screw driver and I can convert your 66 Falcon Ranchero to a 66 Fairlane Ranchero in no time at all. LOL.
@@danielulz1640 I know why they were different from the windshield forward. The video made it sound like they had nothing in common. Sure looks like they had the same roof and other understructure.
Great show keep up the good work be safe my friends God bless all

Cool Pickup 😎
Ranchero is slick 👍🏻
This was my first car. I’d love to have one again
Had mine for 11 years now.....only ever encountered one other one
Good luck finding a tailllight bezel for these. Lol
Wonder what this Ranchero went for in the auction?
The south African Ranchero is based off the Australian ford falcon ute. I had a 98 Falcon ute

I agree, you are correct. This video made it sound like the 66 and 67 Ranchero had nothing in common.

@@2001rams yes, identical bodies and under structure. Falcon wagons, and the Ranchero, were even on the longer Fairlane wheelbase.
