    Yes, great minds think alike.   I got some inserts from Mustangs to Fear, and had them painted at the same time.  They are like an ABS plastic, and I have to use panel bond to attach the to the door.

    I really like the vertical piece of molding with the Mustang Horse emblem.  What kind of molding is that?  Also see the bent metal trim that goes around the door handle.  Did you make all of this?  Very cool.

    I have a Moto-Lita wheel like yours in my '68.  I love the look but I find it very thin for my hands.   For my '70 I am using a Billet Specialties type wheel that is much thicker.

     

    Thanks. The horizontal molding is handmade by my son, cuz there were a couple of holes in there that needed covered. He also made the entire door trim panel, as the arm rest came too far inward for my door bars to clear.  The lower trim around the door handle is also handmade from aluminum. I do need to get a pull handle on it. Thinking about using one from a 67-68 Mustang. He thought the Mustang emblem would fit right in, which I think it does. He has a pretty good eye, and can weld like nobody's business. 

    Ya, that steering wheel ring is too narrow for me also. And it gets slick with just a bit of sweat on your hands. I plan on getting a leather cover from Wheelskins. A fellow Mustanger has one, and they are a quality product.

    It does it while accelerating or when slowing down without my foot on the pedal. Is this what you mean?

    No. I'm talking about if you have you car parked in the garage and rev the engine to where it would be at 45 mph. Do you get the vibration then? This test will tell you if the vibration is from the flexplate/flywheel forward, or from the transmission back, including tires, wheels, driveshaft, rear end etc. And have you done any recent work to your car?


  3. I used a dynamat knockoff that has a soft rubbery material that does not absorb water. I used two layers in most areas, cuz more is better right? Including the one piece seat riser with center console. 

    I used one layer on the inner door skins over the factory sound deadening material. So far (45,000 miles) it has remained in place. 

    The carpet I used was the thicker ACC with the matting. I did have to trim the lower edges of the console to fit the seat riser hump since my console was for a non convertible. 

     

     

     


  4. Passenger ejection seat. At least that's what I'd use it for. 

    Just follow them wars to the prize. Good chance is not connected to anything after all these years. 

    Welcome to the forum Steve, I take it you're from Ottawa. Most of us gezzers like to see pics of other's Mustangs, how about you post up a few, regardless of condition?
