Terminal supply sells both size bullet connectors in crimp stuff.  You can make them look better by stripping off the blue plastic and using black heat shrink.  Or you can replace them with something 40 years newer like a weatherpack or duetsch connector if originality is not required.

DT series connectors are pricey but they work REALLY well and are more compact than weatherpack/Delphi/Metripack or whoever owns them this week.

Waytek Wire also had them in a crimp style like Barry is talking about in sizes to match the stock Ford ones.

You can get on Newark website and hunt some down I am sure. Pretty good site, with specs, drawings etc.  You can take the part numbers and find small packs instead of bulk etc. Learn to work the filters on the search and it gets much easier.

I saw some of these somewhere while searching for some kits of bullet connectors, for boats etc. May have been on Amazon since that is where I got the kits I needed? Remember it said specifically FORD.
