A picture would help?

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

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.

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.

Lanny 01-09-2022 10:40 PM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

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.

It's not a 63 Galaxie. Mine had the washer bag on the right. And definitely not a 289.

paetsgone 01-10-2022 12:16 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

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.

KULTULZ 01-10-2022 02:24 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

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?

darrell 01-10-2022 05:59 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

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.

darrell 01-10-2022 06:11 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

66 was the last year for the single master cylinder.if the motor is original it should be 66.

STEVE O 01-10-2022 07:09 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

Looks pu by the inner fender and support for the hood hinge.

paetsgone 01-10-2022 07:23 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

is that a good engine to build. I thought it was a small block 289.

darrell 01-10-2022 08:47 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

if its a pickup maybe a 352.i was thinking a galaxie.

That's what I think but he said car ... :confused:

rotorwrench 01-10-2022 10:32 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

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.

flatrod 01-10-2022 10:34 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

It looks pick up to me too. I thought only the trucks used the horizontally mounted oil filter.

was not a pickup i recall. thanks to all for pitching in. scott

craig 01-10-2022 11:47 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

It's a 352 in a 65-66 F100

craig 01-10-2022 11:49 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

It's a 352 in a 65-66 F100. The angled oil filter, hand choke and flat top valve covers are the indicators

scicala 01-10-2022 12:56 PM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

If the alternator and carb/intake are original...., I believe alternators started in 64 1/2 or '65. The carb appears to be a four barrel 4100 and the style accel pump cover that was used after '64. Definately an FE engine. My Guess is a '65 or '66 Galaxie with a 390, since 352's didn't use a four barrel carb after 1960.

Craig,
Good catch on the manual choke. At first look I thought the choke assembly was just missing. Also thought V8 trucks had auto chokes in '66 ? Could be wrong.

Hey Scott, is there a chance you could go out and snap a picture of'
that vehicles body ?

craig 01-10-2022 01:55 PM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

Sal, I've had a '65, '66, and a '67 F100. All were original 352's with manual choke 2100's, alternators and the squared top valve covers. This photo is definitely a pickup from those 3 years. In '68 the pickups got a 360, 2100 with an auto choke and the rounded, Powered by Ford valve covers. I just don't have a picture of any of my old rigs to verify it

Good info Craig. This engine has a 4100 4 barrel. That's why I'm leaning towards a 390. Chances are the carb and intake have been chaged after all theses years. I don't know if a 390 was ever offered in a truck ?

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

Are you sure you are not looking at a 2100?

craig 01-10-2022 05:16 PM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

Take another look Sal, I can see the rear of the mounting flange, and I can't see anything that looks like the secondary throttle plate activator rod that would be on a 4100

If you look closely over the top of the choke plate, you can see one of the screws that holds down the rear of the bowl cover for the rear barrels, plus part of the boss for the vacuum passage to the secondary diaphragm.
All I can say is someone must have disabled the rear two barrels by removing the rod that comes from the diaphragm lever.

Actually, after a better look I can see the tip of the sec. diaphragm lever. Not to mention one of the secondary bowl vent tubes sticking up.

Pretty sure, since I can see one of the rear screws that hold the bowl cover down on the secondary side.

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

As others have mentioned, those are truck inner fenders. I agree with craig narrowing it down to 65 or 66.

craig 01-11-2022 12:08 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

Sal, take a look at this carb. I think the castings at the rear are what you think are screws Whoops, no picture!

flatrod 01-11-2022 09:51 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

I thought it looked like a 2100 as well. As I remember only the 289 HiPo's were the only 4100 that have manual chokes. And its not a 289! Hard to tell what the carb is for sure.

rotorwrench 01-11-2022 10:54 AM

Re: Can you id this ford.
 

Friends & family owned Galaxies, LTD, and Mercury Monterey cars in 65 & 66 and I spent time working on them. They don't look like the one in the photo for sure. My Pop had a 66 Ford F100 that looked a lot like what's in the photo. They had the twin I beam front ends.

At this point I see arguments for a 2100 and a 4100. Probably doesn't matter at this point as parts can be changed over all those years.
