Ford OE Service Part F7DZ-7A100-CC Control Valve Body

This is an original equipment (OE) service part from Ford Motor Company, packaged in its original brown corrugated cardboard shipping box. The primary identifier is a large white and blue 'Service Parts' label applied to the front of the carton. The label features the iconic Ford blue oval logo and identifies the part as a 'Control' with the specific engineering part number F7DZ-7A100-CC. Below the part number is a barcode and a series of production codes: H751B, 143661, 24, and a date-like sequence 04062001, which likely indicates a manufacture or packaging date in April 2001. The 'F7' prefix suggests the part was originally designed for a 1997 model year vehicle, specifically for the Ford Taurus or Mercury Sable line (indicated by the 'D' code). The '7A100' portion of the number traditionally refers to an automatic transmission control valve body. The packaging shows signs of age-related wear, including slight scuffing and clear adhesive tape over the top seam, but the label remains legible and intact. This item represents a 'New Old Stock' (NOS) component, highly sought after for authentic vehicle restoration or specific mechanical repairs requiring original manufacturer tolerances.
