69RavenConv reacted to Hux in Stereo ideas for convertible
So many of us don’t want to cut up the interior to mount speakers yet want some level of music when we are out driving.
Has anyone else considered something like a Bose Sounlink Mini 2? - my thoughts were have an original radio in the car for appearance and just use the phone with a streaming service playing through a halfway decent portable Bluetooth speaker which could sit on the dash top with a bit of hook and loop tape holding it.

May be the brackets were not glued to correct spots thus limiting the adjustment.

69RavenConv reacted to Ridge Runner in When you think you’re cool.
I have a 69 hood ,and the 71-73 is on its way. I am going to peel the skin on the 69 and re place with the 71 -73 skin . The trick will be using the under pocket for the ram air in the 71 -73 under brace and welding it into the 69 under brace .i plan on smooting in the scoops ,then pull a mold

Very nice !
The brackets do keep the end of the bumper from flopping around

69RavenConv reacted to TinMan in It is Time
Funny how you forget stuff. I completely forgot about this 70 notch back I owned for maybe 6 months in Houston around maybe 1985??. Was just looking at old pictures.
Was a factory shaker, 4 bbl and 4 gear. I wasn't making enough money to rub two nickels together and simply couldn't afford to keep it running. One of my proudest moments in life was when my beautiful bride grabbed major 2nd gear rubber in this car! Really wish I kept it, but I don't see how it would have been possible with just starting out life and upcoming family. It's a good memory.

That was kinda cool. I realize my Mach is pretty beat up, but you don't see many originals...

69RavenConv reacted to stangs-R-me in Conv. top switch
1969 has TWO switch holes
1970 has only ONE centered switch hole
1969 options included Cruise, Power Top, and Rear Window De-Fog Blower (Hardtop only).
1970 options included Fog Lights (Mach 1 only), Power Top, and Rear Window De-Fog Blower (Hardtop only).
Pretty sure that is it.

69RavenConv reacted to Vicfreg in Remembering 9-11-2001
At one time, I worked in the #2 World Trade Center (South Tower) on the 87th floor. Years later, on 9-11-2001, colleagues and friends perished in the terrorist attack Remembering them today.
Thoughts and prayers go to all the families who were impacted by this tragic event. WGI was an Engineering company that today is part of AECOM. The legacy company I worked for had people from the 78th to the 92 floor on #2WTC.

69RavenConv reacted to aslanefe in Door alignment
Hope OP does not mind.
It attaches in place of the jack pad. Made with parts from a swing set and a piece of square tubing. Door sits on the 2x4 so the edge of it does not get damaged. I also put some padding on the wood before I put the door on it. If you balance the door, it does not tip over. Use the bungee chords to squeeze/hold the door between posts after I load the door with the hinged posts down. I install/adjust doors alone with it.

If I'm reading the date code correctly, today is 51 years since that glorious day in Metuchen.

Make sure your checkbook and/or savings account is 3x larger than what you think it needs to be.

69RavenConv reacted to Topless69GT in When you think you’re cool.
I love driving down the road on a nice day. Top is down and the 69 is running good. That is the best feeling in the world until a cooler car comes up and passes you.

69RavenConv got a reaction from RPM in Door handle rod assembly
Without digging too deeply into your photos, you may want to consider buying a new set of re-popped rods to go with your new handles. They're not too expensive and you know they're the correct length, etc.
Since your handles were missing, there's no guarantee the innards are correct. I replaced my pitted handles with nice re-pops years ago and everything fit well on re-pop doors. I think Scott Drake acquired the company that made my handles so they're probably still using the same tooling.
