FoMoCo vs Ford
« on: April 26, 2023, 08:30:30 AM »
When did parts start being marked with Ford instead of FoMoCo?  Thinking specifically of engine fans

Could a 66 fan have had Ford markings?

If you have a specific fan your trying to determine the origin to might start with what the Ford script looks like and the date stamped on the fan.

The similar C6OE-G fan used on 67 and 68 289 /302 Mustang  with air  has the FOMOCO in oval trademark .

Looked through my pictures and apparently the script is not something many take pictures of or have studied. If it were me I would start on Ebay and use the pictures there in an effort to maybe establish some data points for comparison and to possible draw a conclusion
