It depends on what you need. Some parts can still be found at places like Napa and Autozone. Some online sources would be Motorhaven, Joblot, Concours Parts, <a href="http://www.motorhaven.com"><a href="http://www.motorhaven.com">Dennis Carpenter</a></a>, Mac's, John's F-Fun Hundreds, <a href="http://www.motorhaven.com"><a href="http://www.motorhaven.com">Mid-Fifty</a></a>, Kanter, Vintage Parts, Obsolete, etc. I have links to these vendors and more on my web site.

Good luck!

I know at the very least, brake shoes and wheel cylinder repair kits are available locally. They fit quite a few years.

I got all my brake parts at Auto Zone; they are getting into that era lately. They even had tie rod ends for my F350.

Next choice would be NAPA.
