Mail Order Pars Prices
Who is the cheapest when it comes to ordering parts not availible from autozone, napa, etc. Local Ford dealers are out of the question; I'm curious to know which companies offer the most competive pricing overall? Specifically I need a main parking brake cable. Quotes from online salvage yards are more that buying it new from Macs Auto Parts, etc.
Thanks again

If you have the Ford part # go to this site and plug it in. They're usually the cheapest.

http://www.genuine-ford-parts.com/ only goes back as far as 1980. Will they still have older parts simply by entering the correct part number even if it is prior to 1980? Is there a good source for OEM part number which would include a diagram maybe?

Yes, if you have the part # and they carry it, they'll show it to you. I've bought parts for my 72 but you have to put in the part #. I usually get the part # from dennis-carpenter.com and plug it in there. It'll save you half. Here you go:

Why didnt i think of that, i guess that is they your a "Posting Guru". Thanks a bunch !!!
Charles: I've found NPD and Macs are pretty close to LMC on this particular part. I'm curious to see if Ford is close or better. dennis-carpenter.com is consistently higher.

Nope, "posting guru" means I'm wise as to how to post. 1000 posts gets you the "guru" tag and half of mine are things like "which way is up", etc. I'm just tight with my cash so I always try to figure how to save a buck.

There's something fishy about the genuine-ford-parts.com website also. The initial web page is a pretty ford one and when you click the parts link you get the parts locator page. I've ended up on that parts locator page from various parts suppliers main web pages. You just get a different title in the upper left corner.
