Excellent, you'll fit right in with the rest of us.

I’ll check all grounds again, thank you! And thanks for the “cheese grater” reference.. with this BT-100 I knew exactly what you were talking about! 
6, last week, and I want my lawyer

Added the E-Stopp electric parking brake today. I like the easy install and extra room in the foot well without the parking brake pedal.

I love the first start of a well built motor ,neighbors not so much ,it has to be started with mufflers off ...its the code of the stang!

Still waiting for a chance to get out there and take some glamour shots, but I am enjoying the color!

I've since added the lime green stripe on the hood (decal).. Im still undecided 
 

Here's a video you might want to check out. I think it gives a good comparison between the two headliners you are looking into. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6IfYyROguA
 

I'The 69-70 headliners are larger than the 65-68 so they require a larger sheet of ABS to make, hence the higher cost. ABS will also last a lot longer than soft fiberglass with no change of separation between the suede and the backing. I've explained numerous times the cost to ship and of our headliners is 200.00,  but we absorb 150.00 of it.  This is considered oversized,  recently the freight company says their wider than the scanners allow and have tried to charge us an additional 1,000.00 on top of the 200.00. Keep in mind TMI has next to nothing in the cost of their headliners,  and dealers cost is only 130.00.

The parts you have are for the fold down seat so they go in behind the part you dont have.  You can see the cut out in them for the latch mechanism.  They are really only exposed when the seat is folded down.   There is another part which goes down below the rear window above the trap door area. 
 
It is more apparent when you see a picture of an assembled sports deck seat that is folded down.

I used the TMI one piece vinyl headliner and havent had any issues with it.  Plenty of headspace and very easy to install, did it by myself with some clips and through open doors windows down.  They dont come insulated but you can put it underneath, best bet is dynamat or something similar.  I got I for the same reason, cheaper cost and free shipping over the MTF part. You'll have some haters chime in, but everyone has their opinion hahaha.

Ya, I was flummoxed on the price, until I installed it. Imo, since I'm 6' 2-1/4" it's the only way for me from now on. I can't say enough good things about MTF headliners and their people on the phones. 
The MTF headliner is not insulated. I put 2 layers of self stick stuff on the roof. 

We install all our headliners with Hush Mat on the roof first, the we use a high grade of 1/2 thich carpet padding glued to the  Hush Mat. This will make a huge difference. 

Thanks MTF! This worked. I was able to grab 2 threads with the tool and pull it up just enough to grab a couple more threads.. all sandwiched together now 

ha! lies! I've seen your work.
Congrats on a very successful business btw

Before I would cut it out I would run a tap through it first,  then use your tool and try to reset it .

I'm just a beginner learning the trade :)

You do not need to take the car to the paint shop to touch it up. The area will be covered by the hinge, so a drop or two of any color paint or even superglue will do. You will not need big guns,  grinding off the flange is the easiest way to remove a spun rivnut if you can't re-squeze it.

I prefer to use a cutting disk to grind it off instead of using a grinding bit as the bit might bite, jump and create more damage to paint. Also, make sure to cover the car before grinding.

You can carefully grind the flange of the rivnut and push it in; you might be able to retrieve the piece that falls down or just leave it. Then install a new rivnut into same hole. I would touch up the paint before I install the new rivnut.

Not the owner of this thread, but i did relocate my battery to the trunk of my car. Went with the Odyssey PC925 and a proper mount (no free acid inside, no need for a box)

ignore the loose wires, this picture was taken in the middle of wiring the taillights

Silicone based or white lithium for rubber. Both will penetrate the outer layer of the butyl (without wearing it down) and prevent the squeaking. Do not use petroleum based lubricants on rubber, it WILL cause premature break-down.
Poly bushings are stronger long term, but they will squeak a lot more if not properly lubricated. For poly, use petroleum or oil based

That's looking good.

It will be great to see it fully reassembled with the new paints scheme.

Well, its been a couple years.. a lot has happened.. lets see if i can continue this from where i left off...
Switched from Flickr to Google Photos, sorry about the need to click links

Finished the undercarriage and most of the interior (need to find various trim pieces).
Grinded down to bare metal, repalced seat pans, primed and put a protective undercoating on everything.
