Sounds like a normal off the shelf part from NAPA, or any big truck parts place.
Unless you need one exactly as original, in which case we'd need a picture, and still they may have one at the regular parts places.

He could rewire a ford or barrel type solenoid in it's place but he wants to try and find the original if possible.
I know this could be a daunting task. I I'm currently searching E Bay with some being close , no luck yet.
It's kind'a like the old horn relay, but different and a little heavier.
