    I'm a Maverick owner, but I have a friend with a 64 Falcon Sprint. We just dropped in a 302 and a C4 automatic. I believe we NEED a 1964 specific Mustang Cross Member for a C4 Trans. Does anyone know of a company that would sell these? Thanks for any help or info you can provide.

    If it fits a 64 Stang, it should fit the Falcon, Check for those ones.

    When I swapped a C4 for a Ford-o-matic 2spd in a 62 Falcon it bolted right in - no need to change anything on the car.

    Here's the link to a picture of the Dearborn piece:

    My dad had an original '64 Comet 260/C4. I remember the trans mount looking very much like the Dearborn pic. Perhaps on the original, the tab section off the back side was a bolt-on rather than being an integral part of the crossmember.

    EDIT: I just checked my Ford parts catalog and the tabbed piece was a separate bolt-on.
