Whatever you choose, be sure you've got it properly vented at the end of the day. Believe it or not, I ruined a brand new tank when I was restoring my car. I had some heavy-duty plastic, like two Zip-Lock freezer bags, securely sealing the filler neck while I worked on the body and got it ready for a proper cap. I started the engine one day and the vacuum created by the fuel pump collapsed the tank. True story, I've still got the otherwise "good" tank - if I could post a picture I would :) I understand wanting to use the one your family got but it seems like a lot of effort compared to getting one of the many good-looking OEM styles available.

The best place to start would probably be a set of Shop Manuals and (Osborne) Assembly Manuals. There is no interior assembly manual for 1969 but the 1970 is very close. https://www.npdlink.com/search/products?search_terms=interior%2BAssembly%2Bmanual&top_parent=200001&year=1970

I don't know about the Dynacorn part but I bought a rear valence that has the dual exhaust cutouts for my convertible to replace the stock single exhaust (no cutouts) and I'm sure it would also fit a coupe. I don't recall where I bought mine but NPD carries both. https://www.npdlink.com/1965-1973-mustang/body-exterior/body-parts-and-sheet-metal/rear-valance-panel-rear-license-plate?year=1969

The link provided by Vic is for a standard interior, it sounds like you're looking for the deluxe interior. NPD has both in stock. You could call NPD and ask if it fits the ACP dash: https://www.npdlink.com/search/products?search_terms=map%2Blight%2Bassembly&top_parent=200001&year=1969

Happy holidays everyone! Good to hear from you, Print Dad! Will keep your wife in my thoughts, that's a tough fight.

The 3M DI-NOC coverings seem to be a popular choice. Never used it myself. https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/c/films-sheeting/architectural-finishes/surface/i/automotive/

Thanks for the kind words, Bob, but it's definitely a team effort. I really wish Ben would update the site.

A spammer replied to the thread, which is why it got bumped. The spam's been deleted. Re=reading it got me thinking of giving it a try myself.

Old thread, I know but I just dispatched my first mouse of the season and it reminded me of it. I use the old fashioned mouse traps baited with peanut butter. I have a vert and over the years the buggers have been a problem in the trunk, under the rear window and in the rear window well. I've tried the peppermint, dryer sheets, steel wool and other stuff but concluded that mining the shop with traps, especially around the doors where they come in is the best defense. Never tried the high tech electronic stuff but the reviews aren't great. Sure, it's dirty and requires checking the traps every day or every other day and reloading as needed but they haven't done any damage since I got diligent about it.

I'd be interested, too. The big box store bits I usually get are ok for my woodworking but never survive any metal work. I've read Norseman are great but can't justify the price tag. Maybe someday.

Yeah, they're back again, very discouraging....

@bswor , did you see the e-mail?

That is the standard interior panel with the clock option. I don't know if that dash panel or the clock are reproduced for the standard interior. One option is to replace the dash panel with the plain, no clock style: https://www.npdlink.com/product/trim-panel-dash-rh/205504?backurl=search%2Fproducts%3Fsearch_terms%3Ddash%2Btrim%26top_parent%3D200001%26year%3D1969&year=1969 My car came with the convenience group, so I got the clock style panel with a clock delete plate. That's the only way they could give me the glove box light.

Got my shirt in the mail, it looks good, even the red Mach 1 on the back :) Thanks, Bob.
