Does anyone here have a parts diagram (hopefully with part numbers) of the front suspension and brakes for a 1971 LTD? I Googled but didn’t find. Also, is there any monetary value to a 400 CiD SBF or are they boat anchors? Thank you

I figured I would post this in case any of y'all were interested. Neither are mine, I came across them looking for other items for my car. Both are in AZ. https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/pts/d/peoria-ford-cylinder-heads/7298485131.html...

I’m slowly assembling the parts I’ll need to eventually swap a 302 (or at least a SBF) into my 55. I’ve been keeping my eye out for a good set of used headers; there seem to be plenty around. I’ve read here and on other sites that the 64 – 73 Mustang headers fit. Before I actually buy I need...

Hi Guys, I've found the donor for my 55 Customline disc brake swap. It is a 75 Merc Comet - same parts as the Granada. Tomorrow I'll head over to pull the parts off. I'll be taking the spindle and all that attaches to it except the wheel. Also going to get the proportioning valve, master...

Hi all, I may have a line on getting the front disc brakes off of a 69 Galaxie for my 55 Customline. It seems like it was a swap I read about but I can't find it now. Has anyone here done that particular swap? Thank you

Not sure the title here is quite right but . . . First, I'm somewhat "thinking out loud" here. I'm preparing to get some work done on my 55 so she can at least be driven. This is the oldest car I've owned, among a number of older cars. Several have been cars where parts are rare (not...

Hi all, I’m attempting to figure out what my 55 was before the prior owner(s) did what they did to it. So I want to decode the Data Tag – the one on the driver’s door pillar. Problem: the door won’t open, so I go to the other side roll down the driver’s window and give it a tug – no go. I fiddle...

The chassis pictured below I somewhat local to me and my interest is in some of the chassis parts (for my car) but not the frame itself. He says it is a 1956 Merc Wagon frame, which leads to my first question. Are the wagon and car frames the same? I'm presuming the Merc and Fords are the same...

Not sure if its OK to post this but I figured someone here might be interested. It's not mine and I have no connection to whoever is selling it. Just an FYI. https://prescott.craigslist.org/cto/6737006906.html

Since I'm going to do a front end suspension rebuilt when I do the disc brake conversion I would like to have the as many prep'd and painted parts in hand and ready to attach. I have a spare pair of upper control arms now but not the lowers. What I need to know is what years and or models...

Hi all, new guy here so I figured I would do a little intro posting. I have a 1955 Ford Customline that I picked up in 2010. I’ve been looking for an active forum that deals with these cars and stumbled across this one and y’all seem to be pretty active and knowledgeable. I am also on the sister...
