1973 through 1979 Ford Truck Parts-for-Sale Galore

Ford truck engines, transmissions, suspension parts, body parts and interior parts are available from multiple years.

If you are in the process of building or restoring a Ford F-Series pickup from the sixth generation, which ran from 1973 through 1979, this listing in the FTE Marketplace will surely prove to be a treasure trove of original parts. This sales thread posted by “twinzilla” is basically a part-out, but it seems that the seller is parting-out a bunch of trucks, as he has multiples of everything. Maybe he planned to restore multiple trucks, maybe he runs a salvage yard or maybe he just collectors lots of parts, but in any case, there don’t appear to be many parts of a sixth generation Ford truck that he doesn’t have available for sale.

The Introduction

When the OP first posted the long list of Ford truck parts from 1973 through 1979, he included a long list of the items that he has available, but as he mentions at the beginning of the post, there is more than he hasn’t listed.

He also included 45 pictures of random parts, from engines to differentials to body parts to interior bits, many of which show items that appear to be in pretty nice shape for the age. We have included a handful of the more interesting pictures here, but if you have time to kill and you are looking for 1970s Ford truck parts, we recommend that you flip through his pictures in the sale thread.

Literally Some of Everything

As we scan through the list above, the OP seemingly has parts from every area of the vehicle, inside, outside, under the hood and under the body. The only thing that he doesn’t specifically mention is truck frames, but if you have a bare frame, this seller might have every other part that you need to build that bare frame into an entire, classic Ford truck.

There are no prices listed, but again, if you need something unusual from a sixth generation Ford F-Series pickup, the odds are good that the OP of this thread can help you find it.

Patrick Rall

"Before I was old enough to walk, my dad was taking me to various types of racing events, from local drag racing to the Daytona 500," says Patrick Rall, a lifetime automotive expert, diehard Dodge fan, and respected auto journalist for over 10 years. "He owned a repair shop and had a variety of performance cars when I was young, but by the time I was 16, he was ready to build me my first drag car – a 1983 Dodge Mirada that ran low 12s. I spent 10 years traveling around the country, racing with my dad by my side. While we live in different areas of the country, my dad still drag races at 80 years old in the car that he built when I was 16 while I race other vehicles, including my 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and my 1972 Dodge Demon 340.

"Although I went to college for accounting, my time in my dad’s shop growing up allowed me the knowledge to spend time working as a mechanic before getting my accounting degree, at which point I worked in the office of a dealership group. While I was working in the accounting world, I continued racing and taking pictures of cars at the track. Over time, I began showing off those pictures online and that led to my writing.

"Ten years ago, I left the accounting world to become a full-time automotive writer and I am living proof that if you love what you do, you will never “work” a day in your life," adds Rall, who has clocked in time as an auto mechanic, longtime drag racer and now automotive journalist who contributes to nearly a dozen popular auto websites dedicated to fellow enthusiasts.

"I love covering the automotive industry and everything involved with the job. I was fortunate to turn my love of the automotive world into a hobby that led to an exciting career, with my past of working as a mechanic and as an accountant in the automotive world provides me with a unique perspective of the industry.

"My experience drag racing for more than 20 years coupled with a newfound interest in road racing over the past decade allows me to push performance cars to their limit, while my role as a horse stable manager gives me vast experience towing and hauling with all of the newest trucks on the market today.

"Being based on Detroit," says Rall, "I never miss the North American International Auto Show, the Woodward Dream Cruise and Roadkill Nights, along with spending plenty of time raising hell on Detroit's Woodward Avenue with the best muscle car crowd in the world.
