i just got a 71 ford ltd country squire and i got it without a motor or trans and ive been searching ebay all over for a set of clutch pedals mine was originally an automatic. ive got a 1966 289 and ive got a early 70s truck 302 bellhousing and a 5 speed out of a 87 f-100 anda 3.55 stump to go in the rearendand im trying to piece it all togethor. i was wandering what all other model years will fit or come close to fitting, the closest ive found is a set of pedals for a 71 torino

 

First - doesn't a '66 289 have five bolts to bolt on a 5-bolt bellhousing? Or is it like the '67/'68 with six bolts to bolt on the bellhousing? I know it was changed sometime after '64/'65 but I was a little fuzzy on exact date of the block change. Of course ashort time laterit was changed again into the 302 of the 70's (except I've heard of 289's running later in Mexico).

 

Is Country Squire a station wagon? At any rate many times manufacturers run two cars nearly identical on the same production line to improve output volume. If Mercury Grand Marquis ran in '71 I believe that would be a match - but I'd check out a Hollander Interchange manual to confirm that.
