I took this photo in a junk yard some time ago and i can't remember what car it was. I think its a 289 but their are no shock towers in the engine bay. Looks like around a 66? What do you think. sorry having problems uploading, last line. its not uploading. sorry no way to delete
thanks

Without shock towers it will be a full frame car and if it came with 289 would place it between 63 and 67 Full size Ford. Mercury kept the 390 till 72.
 
. . . sorry having problems uploading, last line. its not uploading. ...

The "File Size" of the image has to be just under 2MB to upload it as an attachment. You may have to create a resized copy of the original (digital) photo.

There is at least one other way to include photos but I haven't gone that route yet.

Can you ID this Ford ? Question by Scott.
 
Paetsgone, thanks for sending the picture, and I sent it to Trevor (Mercman)
and he worked his magic and got it posted for you. Thanks Trev.


I wonder if that is a 352 engine in a full size Ford car or maybe pickup.
I can't tell for sure. Some others will chime in here to help identify it.

With that old round single brake master cylinder should help identify the year.

There was a 1966 convertible 4 speed mustang parked next to it. I remember that one. Had couguar taillights mounted and another set laying inside.
 
It is an FE, most likely LT (352-360-390 2V) as you see how the oil filter is mounted horizontally.

Pre-1967 chassis with SGL RSVR MC (but has an ALT INSTALL - 65/ ).

I would guess GALAXY - CUSTOM.

It was a PASS CAR and not pickup?
 
its an fe as was said.going by the rocker covers its a 66 or later 390 as that was the only fe using a 2 bbl carb at this time.
 
352 engines were almost as common as 390s. It doesn't have the coolant reservoir attached to the coolant thermostat housing of the manifold and it has an alternator so it's likely 65 or 66. No power brakes or steering so it's a basic model. Likely a 352 unless it's a pickup. An F100 could have either engine. The 360 came out for 1968 & later.
