When I was gathering parts for the rebuild of my 1964 Galaxie's power steering hydraulics (hoses, seals, valve seats, etc.), it helped to look at the Master Parts Catalog and figure out what the original part numbers were for the bits I needed.  Then google them in quotation marks, with and without spaces.  Sometimes it helped to just search for the middle part of the part number without the prefix or suffix.  You might get some hits on NOS parts or maybe some web pages for reproductions that mention the original number.

My 65 F100 uses alot of the same parts as a falcon and others, door locks, turn indicator switch, column bushings

I Will get the part numbers on my spare column parts and cross the numbers over

Greg, Bud's was no help.  Said he only does Galaxies
