Wanted - 1969 1970 Fold Down Rear Upper Panel Trim Clips
kblagron replied to jmlay's topic in Cars for Sale / Wanted
On the trim clips, I had some but they did not work well. I eventually just decided to drill small holes and mount with screws. If your not looking for concourse, the screws are almost unnoticeable being at the far back of car, plus every other panel is screwed in except this one. -

I think you could be going down a rabbit hole that if it was me, I would want to avoid. You should be able to find a good roller for not too much above that price without all the rust and dings. Just my thought. Since you're young, maybe you want it to be a long term project, but I would want something in better shape unless you like doing a lot of body work. You might check out this post on VMF, he went down a similar path: https://www.vintage-mustang.com/threads/1970-convertible-build-351w-4sp-toploader-9-rear.1168598/#replies

And a costly route. I just finished my 70 Mach 1 that was in better shape (already disassembled, bead blasted, new metal installed where needed) and the cost to restore from that point was more than the cost of the car now. I did all of the work except the paint. I was not looking at it as an investment, just a hobby to keep me busy, so I had no problems with that. From where you are right now, it will take some money.

I had an early 70 Mach 1 with glue in glass, and I didn't have to do that modification. I am not sure if Nu-Relics changed their design to make it work, or the glue in bracket was different in a 70 .vs. a 69. I installed mine about 6 months ago.

I used some sticky foam about 3/16" thick in that area, but placed it on the metal, not the sail panels. I did the LizardSkin on the interior so probably wasn't needed but it was an easy install. I thought I had a photo, but apparently I don't. Here is what I used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BNBV7WK6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

I know I have one but can't remember what side it is from. I went with Ron Morris, so I don't need it. Will let you know tomorrow. Edit - I have a passenger side bracket from a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 with 351C (at least I think it is as it has an "R" on it). Let me know. Price is right - free if you pay shipping. Tried to upload an image of it here, but no go - see your messages.

The first time it wasn't bad because I had everything out. But then I realized the two hoses weren't long enough, so I pulled it out with the dash installed, changed the hoses and did it again. I can't say it was easy, but still doable. The top bolt is hard to get to, but once you get that one in, the others line up great. I would take off the steering wheel and the seat to get better access.

Do you have a photo of what you want? I may have one, but not sure -
Adjustable Motor Mounts? need recommendations
kblagron replied to rwcstang's topic in 1969-70 Technical Forum
I slid the RM motor mounts back about an inch or so, and my power steering pump was very close to the shock tower, and interfered with belt tension adjustment (351C). I ran a tight belt, but probably only have about a 1/2 inch of leeway to take tension out now. -

Thanks! Mine shifts great as well, but you always get worried when you hear about other owners problems. I went with the Malwood Hydraulic Clutch Pedal and used the MDL slave cylinder and it has worked great for the 150+ miles I have on it so far.

Did you ever get any info back from Modern Driveline on what was wrong with the T5Z that you had to return. Just curious, as I have the same setup.
