Auto Parts: 1969 Galaxie 500 Fuel Sending Unit, pep boys, pearsonville california

Question
I have a 1969 Galaxie 500 and I believe the fuel sending unit needs to be replaced.  The car has a 351W motor.  I have had no luck locating a unit for the 1969 Galaxie 500 with the 351W motor.  Are there other years (other than 1969) or engine sizes (other than 351W) that I can reference for the fuel sending unit?  Or, do you know of a good source for parts for the 1969 Ford Galaxie?

Thanks,

Rich

Answer
Hi Richard,

I don't plug the competition but since we don't deal with parts that old, you can try Pearsonville Salvage in Pearsonville, California or All American Classics in Vancouver, Washington. (yellowbook.com or they both have their own websites).

Wish I could help you more.

Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
