Looking for some parts
 
I'm looking for an old headlight switch for a Econoline. I need the shaft and bezel. I have a new switch. I'm also looking for an upper door hinge, the one that goes to the body. The body shop lost one.

Any help is appreciated
Thanks Joe - Southern California

The headlamp switch knob & shaft is a one piece assembly, and does not come with the switch. The headlight switch bezel is a separate part.

C1TF11661B .. HeadLamp Switch Knob & Shaft Assy / Obsolete

Fits: 1961/67 Econoline / 1961/66 F100/600.

MATLOCK FORD-MERCURY in Franklin IN has TWO = 800-987-3673.

FRED GRANDE FORD in Richmond MI has TWO = 586-727-3415.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has TWO = 800-543-4959.

JST AUTOMOTIVE in Lebanon TN has FOUR = 615-443-3086.
-----------------------------------------------------------
C1TF10852C .. Instrument Cluster Bezel "Lights" / Obsolete

Fits: 1961/67 Econoline

PHILIP MOTOR CO. in Philip SD has ONE = 800-859-5557.

Note: To use this hinge on the left side, reverse the hinge pin.

This procedure may seem odd, but it's as original.
--------------------------------------------------------
Next time you ask questions, please type the year.

Searching thru one parts catalog (1957/63) is easier than searching thru two ('64/72).

Bill,
Thanks for information. Sorry I didn't post the year. I thought early Econoline implied 61 thru 67. Is the bezel and knob shaft the same for the Econoline, Falcon and/or Ranchero? The switch looks to be the same???

Thanks
Joe

I have seen an early model Econoline (1961 - 1964) instrument panel that appears to have been an option, that has gauges instead of the warning lights for the generator and oil pressure. Any chance that one might be kicking around anywhere. Is there maybe a suitable update available??

Thanks again for the help.

It does, but...

Is the bezel and knob shaft the same for the Econoline, Falcon and/or Ranchero? Nope.

The switch is the same, but..

Early Econoline 1961/67: But...there are TWO different parts catalogs: 1957/63 and 1964/72 Ford Truck Parts Catalogs.

Since you didn't mention the year, I had to look in both to see if the part numbers were the same 1961/63 & 1964/67 for the bezel, the knob and shaft.

I knew from the get-go that the hinges were all the same.
---------------------------------------------------------
The headlamp switch (C2DZ11654A) is the same: 1961/64 E100, 1960/63 Falcon/Comet.

But the E100 headlamp knob and shaft (C1TF11661B) is not the same as Falcon/Comet (C1DZ11661A) knob and shaft.

The dash configuration is different, the Falcon/Comet knob does not look the same as the E100 knob.

The E100 "Lights" bezel is not the same as Falcon/Comet.
--------------------------------------------------------
The two idiot light lenses for the OIL & GEN fit into bezels that are removeable.

The optional Oil (C1TF9273A) and Gen (C1TZ10850A) Gauges fit into these same two locations in the instrument cluster.

From the parts catalog pic, everything else is the same.

But...you will also need the specific dash wiring harness used when these two gauges are present, the oil pressure sending switch instead of the one used with an idiot light.

I found 36 NOS oil gauges, 41 NOS Gen gauges, the oil pressure sending switch is EZ to find at autoparts stores, but where will you find the wiring harness?

No one had any.

Sorry...double post.

LotusJoe 10-09-2009 02:22 PM

Bill,
Thanks for the reply on the instruments. It looks like I would have to replace the instrument bezel as well, as the gauges are larger than the gen and oil light indicator holes?? Would you agree?
Thanks

The idiot light lenses are much smaller than the bezels they fit into.

Parts catalog pic shows the gauges fitting into the same spots as the idiot light bezels without any additional parts required.

The instrument cluster face has four holes in it, the cluster back that the gauges fit into is the same for idiot light bezels.

So...all you need are the gauges, the oil pressure sending switch (the one for the light is different)...and the wiring harness.

Oil and Gen gauges
 
Bill, Thanks again for the info on the gauges. In your post you indicated that there were 36 oil gauges and 41 gen gauges avail. Can you tell me which supplier I can go to to buy?

Thanks
Joe

The switch is the same as early Falcon. These are reproduced and available from Macs, Dearborn Classics, Autokrafters and Dennis Carpenter.

mr number dummy,
 
hi, sir i own two of the origional bull fenders emblems that came factory stock on a 70 ranchero that i owned and drove for years, i loved that truck and i would still have save the fact a very good friend of mine totataled it. my point i have no facts, but i suspect they are rare. do i have something special, or are they reproduced. so you will know, i decided to move on and divest them, i would like some one who is restoring to have them, any thoughts sir. paul md.

father/son 01-28-2010 07:49 AM

emblems
 
i found out my bull emplems are reproduced, and very cheap at that. even though mine are for real 70 vintage, you cannot tell the diff from thr repops. i wanted to helpsomeone restoring but i dont have anything special at all as it turns out. later fellas. my vote is for 1970, best ford i ever owned. paul md
