    Frame mounts from a 65 mUstang are not going to work (as far as a straight bolt-on). You need Maverick specific frame mounts.

    Might work with some modifications. I personally wouldn't mess with it and just find some Maverick specific mounts.

    Won't work...

    '65 Comet/Falcon and previous have pin style
    motor mounts.

    I am not sure about '66.

    Craig, will the Granada mounts work?
