Ya, I buy stuff from Mcmaster Carr all the time. The items I'm looking for are specific to the F-1. Example; the small cups on the firewall cover, the star type washer for the heater and the wire harness clip for the firewall as pictured. You can't fine those just anywere. My hope was that many of us here have changed their trucks enough that those item are just stuff taking up space. I know I'm starting to have that problem.
And if you have big problems finding the inset washers (Marshalls may have theose as well) I'm not sure how many you need, but you could always use a couple of those thingys that you use to bolt on the wire wheels and grinding wheels to your grinder. You know the ones that go on the sides of the wheel. They sell those for drill mounted wire wheels as well.
If you can't find that cup you might be able to make your own on a press. Are those clips model year specific or would the ones from 53-56 be the same?
If you haven't located these pieces by tomorrow afternoon, I'll go dig through the barn and see if I can find them. I've got a big can of hardware out there somewhere from the trucks that I've parted out. Just keep in mind that it's not supposed to be above 19 degrees all weekend here. This could cost ya.
This might be the clip. It's listed for the flexible fuel line clip to the firewall and engine harness clip to the inner fender but I think it might be the same as the clips that hold the wiring harness along the top of the firewall.
