Am I missing something here?
All right I give up where do you buy parts for a Ford 302 engine? I tried the Ford parts guy and the earliest year on there site is 1980. I googled 1970 Ford 302 parts and got nothing. I tried LMC, I tried Blue Oval nothing. National parts depot looks like they might have them but not sure of the applicability.

The online parts catalog system is run by FoMoCo (Trademotion), and only goes back as far as 1984/85...regardless of what dealership is using it.
Something else to consider. Most Ford partsguy's do NOT give a damn about older vehicles. They did not when your truck was new, and today...nothing has changed.
Today: When the vehicle's specific VIN is typed into Ford's computer system...ALL the part numbers appear on the screen.
But this does not work on 1989 and older stuff, which means that partsguy's (and gals) actually have to look up the part numbers in the catalogs.
Many do NOT want to bother, so...they just shine you on.
What 302 parts do you want? I can tell you what parts are still available from Ford...because...I DO give a damn....and I have ALL the resources.

Most FoMoCo dealerships today only have parts catalogs that go back to 1980, but this does not mean they do not have parts for 1979 and prior years.

302 parts
The only place that I know of with something that old would be a salvage yard located in Ennis, Texas. He takes nothing, but older Fords. From what I understand he also rebuilds engines. If anything, he should have access to the parts you are looking for. Sorry, but I don't remember the name of the place, but Ennis is a small town. Shouldn't be too difficult for you to find it thru Yellow Pages. Hope this helps.

f.goodell: You need to get out more often...if the only place you know of that has parts this old...is a salvage yard in TX.
I've been in this hobby for 50 years, so...I can name 10's of 1000's of places that have NEW parts this old...and not just for Fords, but for everything.

You can get those parts at dozens if not hundreds of local parts houses. Another hundred or so catelog companys. You have one of the most common engines in the world there and can get anything you want for it. Maybe I am missing something here because come on, lifters, pushrods and intake gaskets? Millions of parts out there!!
