I just bought a number 78 at a yard sale for $5. Now it would be a
gloat except that it is missing the fence, parts G & F he

Anybody know where these can be had?

Many moons ago I needed a repair on a Yankee #130, another ancient
Stanley tool. I was able at that time to locate a fellow in
Bridgeport, Conn working for Stanley whose job it was to support these
olde hand tools. That department may or may not exist any longer. I
would try to look for your missing parts by finding a live person at
Stanley since your need is not in the main stream of requests that
they receive.

and found the exact thing. But thank you for the advice.

I was gonna suggest eBay... There is a LOT of traffic on Stanley planes and
parts up there, and your chances of finding oddball pieces like that are
actually better than you might expect.

If Satanley can't help, try eBay.
