I can't seem to find any mention of application for these NOS Oil Filters I found in my garage.

If anyone has a clue please let me know.
I have to list them on E-bay so I need to know what they apply to.
Ask and ye shall receive.
D27Z-6731-A .. Oil Filter (Motorcraft FL-295)

Why would someone buy one on Ebay? By the time you pay shipping you could have picked one up at an auto parts store for less.

FWIW, I thought the same thing. A FRAM? The only way I'd buy a oil filter on E-Bay, is say, if I was restoring a '68 Plymouth 'HEMI GTX, and someone had a factory MoPar oil filter (NOS) that had been used when that 426 rolled off the Lynch Road Assemply Plant, in Detroit, MI.
Fram is an aftermarket, oil filter, don't see much demand for one. Same with a Carquest, Napa, Proline, Pennzoil (Fram) ect.
Mil1ion used the Fram number as a reference, but the filters are Motorcraft (note the Ford engineering number). Depending on how old they are, someone restoring a Courier might want them, as the Motorcraft logo used in 1972 (Ford part number: D27Z-6731-A) looks nothing like the logo used today. The filter also fits Pintos, and will also work on other Ford products as it's shorter than FL-1-A, the far more common Ford spin on filter used from 1957. Shorter filters come in handy on 4x4's and other vehicles when a filter is mounted in a hard to reach location.

Ken, Just For the Motorcraft as they are Manufacture "Dated" so some people with concours vehicles would put them on their vehicle for the show they are attending.
Yes, some people do his
I didn't know what engine they applied to.
also,I don't have any use for them at all and I can't trade them for CFL-1's.
1965 Fords had two different FL-1 (not "A") oil filters.
1. Early 1965 models before 8/23/64, back thru the 1950's = Rotunda oil filter, red in color with white lettering. A decal of the lettering has been reproduced.
2. 1965 models after 8/23/64 = Gold Autolite filter = Marked "The Quality Twins" the other 'twin' was a quart of oil = C5AZ-19579-A, B, etc.
Now consider how many Fords and Shelby's from this era are concours restorations. Ppl will pay big bucks for correct parts. The electrical parts are also different with the early parts marked inside an oval with a script FoMoCo. The later parts are just marked Ford or are plain. Ppl want those original parts, and pay big bucks for them..when they can find 'em. Genuine Ford Accessories: I sold a NOS 260/289 Weber setup I found in a display rack in a Ford dealers attic. It had all the parts including linkage. You could buy a new Focus for what that Weber set up sold for. The display rack? Still have it, and have been offered the farm several times to sell it. I paid $X,X00.00 for a set of red FoMoCo floor mats for my 63 XL HT, and $X00.00 for a black set for my FB, both off fleabait. Am I nuts? Sure! But us 'nuts' keep the hobby going.
