  1. Adco https://www.yellowpages.com/harrison-ar/mip/adco-mustang-3059448
  2. I used 3M urethane with great results. Seven years and the windows are still tight on a convertible where they go up and down constantly.
  3. I don't have any pictures of mine but it's a bayonette style lamp that clips into the bezel/spacer on the switch, behind the dash. Not many Mustangs came equipped, it was part of an option package. You could try West Coast Classic Cougars. (Not my picture)
  4. Door panels and console, radio, carb & air cleaner, backup light lenses.
  5. Looks like a fun project. Welcome to the site!
  6. Correct. Depending on the size of the pipes you're running, there are several tips listed on eBay right now.
  7. I bought a pair from an outfit in Michigan. The welds were pretty rough but can't be seen when installed. They were nowhere near $463. I will see if I can find the name, assuming they are still making them. [edit] I couldn't find my old post but I found another one. It's Great Lakes Customs in Mt. Clemons, MI. Looks like they are still around, maybe give them a call.
  8. That's going to be a problem for Bob after he gets it installed :)
  9. Just confirmed NPD sells both. The engineering inefficiencies in these 50-year-old cars always amazes me. I can't imagine maintaining 2 part numbers for a glove box door instead of designing stuff that, you know, fits both builds. :)
  10. Yes, it is. Very cool vehicle. I have a 5.0L in my garage just waiting for a vintage truck. :)
  11. I found this pic of my OEM brackets. Looks like they may have been black originally. I think I shot them with some black epoxy primer before installing.
  12. I just commented on your post in the "what did you do" thread. Am I correct that 65D decodes to deluxe interior with bench seat? Don't think I've ever seen that. You'll have to post some pictures.
  13. I remember spending the better part of 3 days stripping the dealer installed undercoating from my fuel tank, only to discover the tank had pinholes in it from rust and I had to replace it anyway. The joys of old automobiles.
  14. Sometimes a cleaning, lubrication, and/or filing the points can bring them back for a while. There's always the quartz conversion route, too, like RPM mentioned. Otherwise, at least it's right twice a day.
  15. Our cars were designed for 14" and 15" rims and in my opinion it's hard to make modern rims look "right" on our cars. The wheel wells and rocker height aren't "right" for bigger wheels. Len69Coupe and Rich Ackerman pulled it off really well.
  16. That's a Grandé and a quick internet search shows that they came with woodgrain in the back. This might be one of those things that's unique to that model. I know the deluxe convertibles and sportsroof's didn't get it. Maybe somebody with a coupe that's got a deluxe interior will chime in.
  17. There is a steel cable that runs from your transmission to the back of the speedometer. There is a small gear on the transmission end that spins the cable. The spinning cable deflects the speedometer needle on the other end. I would check the back of the gauge first, the connection can become loose or broken pretty easily, especially if you've had the dash apart.
  18. Wow, relatively painless. Would love to find a truck like that, congrats!
  19. Kentucky Mustang lists them on their site (I think) but shows them as out of stock. They do ship internationally, though. https://www.kentuckymustang.com/staggered-shock-plates-upper-1969-1970.html
  20. That's purty. How much work are you looking at before it's on the road?
  21. It's fixed - my horn works again. Thanks to @det0326 for hooking me up with a seller of the part I needed. I may now be the world's foremost authority on 2-spoke horns. I took a bunch of pictures, I may post a thread on it while it's fresh in my mind in case anyone else ever cares about such a thing.
  22. Ok, things are getting clearer. I started looking around for a donor wheel and looked at some photos. That prompted me to pull out my old photos and found the one below from several years ago. You can see the contacts are held on by Philips screws. My screws are now missing. Did I absent mindedly remove them at some point and forget to replace them? Probably. So I still may be able to repair it with a donor wheel. Or worst case, go used/repop.
  23. I was thinking that the whole assembly could be salvaged from a donor wheel. It appears to be riveted to the steering wheel. If so a cracked or bent wheel could be a perfect donor. Thanks for the tip.
