Window Anti-rattle kit 1966 + various parts
 
Hello,
I am in Alberta Canada and having difficulties finding parts associated with a 1966 ford truck. I have heard of a classic ford truck part supplier (new/used) near Edmonton Alberta, but do not know the name. Parts I am looking for include:
- Anti-rattle window kit
- door weather stripping
- metal floor pans
- fuel filler gromet
- dash pad
- floor covering (carpet)

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Ritchard

I got my door parts from NPD and LMC truck parts. Also MAC's truck parts.

Hey Richard, First and foremost, welcome to the Family of Ford Truck Enthusiast, welcome to FTE!! :-wink Sorry, not familiar with any Ford truck parts supplier's in Canada, there are a number of FTE members who seem to have an unlimited source of suppliers and may be able to help.

Purchased from just about every Ford part supplier in the lower 48, and support FTE sponsored suppliers when I can, majority of them sell quality merchandise. That being said, when it comes to anti rattle kits, weatherstrip, windshield gaskets, seals, etc. I only buy from Dennis Carpenter, may cost bit more, but made to fit and not as labor intensive to install.

For the rubber parts and door rattlers, you want nothing but Dennis Carpenter brand parts. They may cost more but they fit. They are sold by suppliers other than DC themselves. Floor pans I know are available from Rick at Carolina Classics. Carpet you may have to shop around for. Remember, these trucks did not come with carpet, only rubber matting. I would ask others what they have used and are satisfied with. Dealing with Canadian customs of course will cost you if you have to ship them in. You may want to consider a trip to a show that some of these vendors go to here in the US and bring the parts back with you somehow.

If intend having it done, check with the shop and see who they use, may get a break on the cost. I contacted ACC and exchanged samples until color and fabric was decided on. Went to Uphostery shop and found owner uses the same source so gave him the sample and had him order. Pleased with results, 1 piece runs from under the firewall pad to the back of the seat. Their customer service department was very helpful and had no problem sending me the type and color material on couple occassions. May not be of much help, have pic's in gallery, '65 F100 Flareside'.

ACC original automotive carpet material in cutpile, 80/20 loop, nylon, essex and more.

Suggest try running a search on the topic and narrow the search field to the 61-66 forum. FTE member posted the link below.

The Rangers came with carpeting, the Standard Cabs came with a plain 'ol black floor mat.

If a Custom Cab, the rubber floor mat was offered in different colors.
