I see now, you had a close call my friend, tornadoes just to my north 3 miles and 3 to my northeast 8 miles, my cousins are safe, lost a green house and storage building. Three people died and I think they said 30 injuries.
It was a long 4 hours of it here because my granddaughter and doughter inlaw was down southwest Arkansas at a basketball tournament
Guy had one here. Magenta with blue pearl. It was bright on cloudy days. 289 4 speed

My '66 Ranchero was half Falcon half Fairlane 
The parts guy at MoFoCo and I got used to hunting for factory parts in both Falcon and Fairlane parts catalogs in order to find what was needed 
. I don't know if the 271hp 289 and four spd were available in the regular Falcon line, but it was there for the Ranchero so that's how Dad ordered it 
. '67 Rancheros were all Fairlane.

Thanks...it sure does help
Ranchero? This one ran at our local track in the 60's. It was just down the street from me.My '66 Ranchero was half Falcon half Fairlane
The damn thing never did go straight. It had a big motor in it. 427, 428, 429 whatever.
Good Morning All! Love the Ranchero and I see it doesn't have a "Pro Net". I don't think those nets caught too many Pro's anyway
Time for coffee. I got the wife's lunch made and she's out the door. Makin' money to finance my bad habits.

When I got a real job and had to begin commuting to LA County from the desert I pulled that 289 and 4 spd out and replaced it with a 351W and C4. Sure it was reliable, but that 351 couldn't hold a candle to the fun that 289 produced.
Freezing at night and above freezing during the day. Also more snow coming.
And hence the saying "Just a little 289" lol!
It looks like we will be getting some sunshine soon. No snow on the ground this morning . The west and central counties got pummeled.
Wife took off work yesterday to meet up with appliance guys, dishwasher and range went in. Since we're moving didn't get crazy so ended up where the stove doesn't even have a timer, has "timed bake" but the dishwasher does have a stainless steel tub which I wanted for selling home purposes.
