Gently hit the center of the cap with a drift punch or ...yes ,an old extension ,it will loosen the cap from the snap ring enough to make the ring loosen ,a dremmel with a cutting wheel should cut the ring enough to be able to bend it or break it ,and those are the wrong snap rings, they are actually 65 66 style 

Only knuckleheads (like us) who work on 50 year old cars can understand the satisfaction that comes with a victory like this. 

Success!!
Heated the c clip with a little heat and pried end out, grabbed with needle nose pliers and bam!!
 

There is always the chisel & its friend the BFH to split the cap. :-)

De nada. Don't know the size hole y'all need, mine is for the hydraulic clutch master cylinder  

I guess you used your good eye

When I did the conversion on my 1969 Mach 1 a long time ago, I kind of "eyeballed" it using the clutch rod then noticed a dimple in the firewall where is looked like the rod should pass through.  Maybe I got lucky, drilled the hole to fit the rubber boot using the dimple for the center and it worked.

Ummm...that's a very strange entry way carpet, for sure!

You sure this car didn't come from Switzerland?  I've seen cheese with fewer holes...

If you could only ask the women to get out of the pictures we could get a better look ....

Been a while since I posted in progress. I’ve got the interior in minus the door panels and the rear inner quarters. This weekend I installed a full stainless steel exhaust system from block to exhaust tip. I also got the last of the engine bay all wrapped up and kicked the engine over a few time to double check clearance on everything. I’ll should be starting it for the first time next weekend. I still need to steam the seats to get the last few wrinkles out but I think they look good overall. 

Ummm...those mud flaps don't look particularly effective for some reason.

Her are a couple pics of the 68 GT Coupe I had back in the 80's.



 

The BF lettering is a pain to keep clean due to the leaching the coopers lettering is holding up 10 times better

He did just have a birthday you know, so maybe he bought a bottle with the intent to send it, but now can’t remember where he put it??

My brother bought his 69 S code Mach in 79 and knew I would have to have one. I got mine in 80 at the age of 15, a 69 Drag Pac for 1500. The drivetrain was long gone and had been replaced with a CJ and C6. I later found out she carried the nickname of the "Blue Ghost" due to the many eyry happenings to the prior 6-7 owners. My brother and I were self taught on working on them, with some help from the Chilton's Manual. I was known at HS as the Mach 1 Kid, never got beat street racing, and was constantly harassed by the police for excessive noise, exhibition of acceleration, and no front license plate. In 86 we parted ways, but still carried all the memories and scars of owning her. The 70 vert I bought 7 years ago rekindled the flame and soon got another 69 Mach a year later, then a 68, another 70 vert, a 70 coupe, and then restored my brothers Mach. I don't know what it is about the 69/70 Mustangs that leave a craving within my soul to restore just one more.
I do know though, this forum has created many a long distance friend ships with men I will never meet, hours of entertainment, very helpful advice, built confidence within on wiring/electrical issues, joys, sorrows, and the ability of giving back to others. Thanks Guys

You're more than welcome.  It is often that another set of eyes/mindset can troubleshoot things better than the one experiencing the problem. 
The main reason why I am on this and other forums, as well as my wiring refurbishment business, is that I really enjoy trouble-shooting from a distance.  Having a detached perspective (e.g. a dirty mind laying in the gutter) and helping people out gives me great satisfaction out of life.  That, and a good brand of whiskey...

Well, here’s the one I bought for 400

Several years ago, bought a 69 Grande parts car for 500. It was a total rust bucket, but cleared 4000 on selling the part out I didn’t want, while still keeping, fenders, buckets, doors, compete tilt wheel column, and majority of all the little nick knacks to put 2 cars together. Then traded the shell and title for the rear 70 tail end. 

How about Champagne Gold
