67 ranchero & 67 fairlane help

Hello! Was wondering if its possible to use a complete headlight bucket from a 1967 fairlane on a 1967 ranchero and visa versa? Are they the same or different if not will it bolt up

You're confused, a 1967 Ranchero is a Fairlane, so everything is the same. 1966 Ranchero has a similar body, but it's a Falcon.

1966/70 Falcons have single round headlamps, 1966/67 Fairlanes have dual stacked (vertical) headlamps.

While some parts interchange with 1966/70 Falcon & 1966/67 Fairlane, 1966/70 Falcons use different headlamp parts, front sheet metal, grilles and bumpers.

I thought we were only dealing with 1967 here from the original post.

So did I!!! I originally read his reply from my smart phone, which was some good stuff but turned out to be a bit off with the vehicles/years mentioned! I did however receive the headlights but I'm on the road for 2weeks. Wife did say they look slightly different but might work will keep you posted

If they are different, it's not because one is Fairlane and one is Ranchero. It's going to be because the seller misrepresented what year or model their parts were for. For example, the seller may have thought they were for a Fairlane when they are really for a Galaxie, both of which had stacked headlights for 1967.

Geez Louise!

1967 Ranchero is a FAIRLANE! All the grille & headlamps parts are the same (see upper pic in post #4)

1966 Ranchero is a FALCON, has single headlamps (see lower pic in post #4).
