I ended up making one using plexiglass as the insulator. Spray it black when done and it dosen't look too bad if I say so mtself!

That lil sucker is obsolete...but if you still have the 2 small U shaped spacers that are on the end and a carriage nut and bolt you can make a decent copy of it using your favorite non metalic material...original is wood...about 1/8" thick. Just knock the hole in the middle of it like originally put a washer between the 'block' material and the wire ends and add wires and then the nut...If you want a pic of an original with its specs and so on if you are doing a correct resto or just want the original piece let me know as I have one for my resto when I get to it...

Ford updates 10's of 1000's of part numbers every year...here's an example of OVERKILL!

The original junction block part number was C5TZ14448A.

Ford replaced that with C5TZ14448F / then replaced this number with C5AZ14448A / then replaced this number with C5TZ14448E / then replaced this number with C7TZ14448C / then in September 1974, replaced this number with D3TZ14448A.

Confusing isn't it?

If you want the original C5TZ14448A .. Junction Block

Wesley Obsolete Parts in Liberty KY has TWO = 606-787-5293

Green Sales Co. in Cincinnati OH has SIX = 800-543-4959.

Hey Number Dummy, we could be trying to track that number down for ever and still not come up with the right one if we didn't have your resources and your ability to use them!
