Speedometer gears
No Ford dealer, no other obsolete parts vendor has any.

However, if this is a 1968 F250 Camper Special, due to the size of the (original) wheels, 3.73 ratio, it would use the 7 tooth 8J17285 DRIVE gear.
There are 41 of these puppies available NOS
btw: The were no motor home 'chassis' available until 1973. M450/500's assembled/sold (very poorly) 1973/76. I've only seen one in person.
1969/74 E100/300 (Econolines) are unit bodies. One piece welded chassis/body w/a stub frame to bolt the engine/trans to.
Ford offered an E300 "Cut-Away." Cut the cargo van body off behind the front seats, so that Class C motor home, box van and etc. bodies could be installed.
Actor Clayton Moore (The Lone Ranger) had a E300 Class C motorhome, was a frequent visitor to Ralph Williams Ford in Encino. He liked to come by and chit-chat with anyone.
I've got a pic of the two of us standing beside his motor home. Of course he's wearing the mask, I don't think he ever took it off, even when sleeping!
17285 is the DRIVE gear, 17288 is its spacer, 7070 is the snap ring for the output shaft's bearing (7065).
I have another problem though which is dangerous, not sure if related to gears in the c6. When I start my truck it starts backing up in reverse. When I park it and put in park, I confirm its in park and turn off truck. Then start truck and it starts backing up. Shift collar? Linkage? Related to brakes? The only reason I ask is sometimes when I start truck is stays in park as it should. But when I put foot on brake it will sometimes go into reverse. Last, i do have a functioning 1970's KH hydraulic trailer brake controller. Maybe remove it?

If it's starting in reverse, the NSS and/or the gear selector linkage to the transmission is out of adjustment.
If the gear selector is falling out of park and into reverse, the tip of the gear selector is probably heavily worn.
It may look like this little gem --my old gear selector from my '69 F100. I replaced my whole '69 fixed column with a tilt column from a '78 F150.
^This was the cause of a destroyed dealer rear step bumper and a dent in the tail gate on my truck, when the previous owner had it.
It could also be a sign of collapsed cab mount bushings, placing a bind on the linkage going down to the transmission.
Parts 7A216 and 7210.
The shift lever 67-72 BEFORE SER #P60,001 was D0TZ7210G. Replaced by D3TZ7210C.

D0TZ-7210-G is also a chromo, but I don't recall what the **** was.
The 1965/68 C5TZ-7210-W original shift lever (replaced by D0TZ-7210-G) was painted steel w/a black plastic ****.
Mustang Service Center: 818-765-9266 (818-765-1196 is a cell phone that Bo rarely answers). Bo (the owner before buying Mustang Service Center) was a partsguy at Walker-Buerge Ford in WLA for 20 years.
Before I changed out the entire column, I NEVER left the truck running if I wasn't in it. I always set the parking brake too (even now) --no matter if I park on an incline or if the ground is completely flat.

The (replacement) '78 column has a chrome gear selector lever with a black ****.
