Need parts!

I just found a beautiful barn find F-250 camper special. It has a broken grill and I'm having a hard time locating a new or used one. Does anyone have a good parts supplier?

Every '67-'72 model has a different characteristic of the grille for each year. Grilles can be swapped from one model to another but if you're wanting the grille specific to the year model you have, we would need to know what model it is that you have.

The valance panel behind the front bumper for '67-'69 is compatible with those year model grilles. The valance panel for '70-'72 is compatible with those year model grilles. The panels can also be swapped between the '67-'69 models for the '70-'72 versions and vise-versa.

The valance panel for '70-'72 is compatible with those year model grilles and 1967/69 (see below).
D0TZ-17A862-A (replaced C7TZ-17A862-A) .. Front Bumper Stone Deflector (valance panel) / Obsolete = 1967/72 F100/350

1970/72 parking lamps are longer than the 1967/69 parking lamps that mount below the headlamps in the grille.

So you can use a 1970/72 stone deflector on a 1967/69 (as FoMoCo said), but you cannot use a 1967/69 stone deflector on a 1970/72.

If you want it to look right (gaps around the front parking/signal lights proportioned), you need to swap the '67-'69 valance panel with the '67-'69 style grille. Same for using the '70-'72 panel with the '70-'72 grille. They should be changed as a 'matched set'.

Damn! Thanks for the listings! I did find a grille but I have to see exactly what I need first. No I have no pictures yet, we have to pick it up. My wife and I went to her family's over Memorial Day and her uncle has a few cars in the barn. Upon digging we found this 71' F-250 Camper Special. He bought it 7 years ago and its been sitting all that time. he is pushing 80 and has lost interest so I pitched buying it. I had a 69' Ranger F-100 years ago and would love to have another. This being a big upgrade.

Get This... It has less than 63,000 miles. I'll be the third owner and he wants.... $1,000. I guess i made a good impression! Pictures to follow soon. Towing it back 6-7 hours in the next few week. I scored and I could not be happier to have found an intact and almost all original deluxe model!

WOW! Now that's the deal of the century. Awesome find. You might add him to your Christmas Card list. And keep him up to date on your progress freshening it up. Email him pics. Etc. You know how he'll enjoy seeing he made a good decision in you.
And we'd like to see your progress on a thread here also.

1970 F100/350 grille frame and right/left plastic grille inserts (checkerboard or egg crate pattern): 1970 only.

1971/72 F100/350's use a different grille frame, but the right/left 1971 plastic grille inserts are different than 1972.

Both the 1970 and 1971/72 grille frames will fit, but if you want to keep the truck looking original...

btw: Do not believe the miles shown on the odometer, as it reads to 99999.9 .. then returns to ZERO!
