Exclamation Looking for parts

Howdy folks,
My name is Todd and I have a great 1969 Ford 2wd I picked up frome an original owner. Beautiful truck but I would like to add Power steering and a nice new blue dash pad. Where can I get restoration parts or good used parts?
Todd

I suggest the sponsors of this site.f it wasn't for them,this site would be here.

You should be able to find a link to them on this FREE TECH Site (Thanks to these sponsors)

National parts depot has a great selection nationalpartsdepot.com I think.
<Also I like LMC Truck>

Welcome to FTE!
I can't help you with the dashpad, but you can find lot of answers on the power steering.
This has been a popular swap for '65/'66 trucks for a number of years. Search in the '61 - '66 forum for lots of information on the possibilities. The front suspension and steering is esssentially the same from '65 to '79, so read up on the details to learn what you can do.
(Watch out for the differences between the '65 and later versus the '64 and earlier trucks. The '64 and earlier trucks are completely different underneath, but the '65 and later ones are compatible with yours if it has the twin I-beams.)
This is really an easy upgrade, especially if you have an FE with automatic.
