[QUOTE="1BROWNWRENCH, post: 1096259, member: 30128"] I often fantasize about building up a Falcon Rachero from the early 60s with a stout 5.0 and other Mustang driveline. They are so old and rotten now( at least around here anyways). Later years don't appeal to me because they blimped out so bad. Falcons were so light. Too bad the stock frontends sucked. Too flimsy( yes, I know there is a cure for that). Back in 74 my father converted a 61 2door wagon(very rare) to diesel using a Ford industrial 4 cylinder and a Rambler OD transmission using a custom made (by himself!) bellhousing. Made mid 40's on the highway. He put in a 20 gallon tank from a Comet wagon, so road trips were agony at times. Eventually the fun ended when the crank broke. [/QUOTE]
