As restorers we often run into the fact that not every item we need for our car is either available or if available, not always correct.
The Challenge: If your restoring a 69-70 Mach I , Shelby or Grande, currently there is no reproduction made of the full trunk underlayment that was originally installed between your gas tank and trunk mat. This full size underlayment was part of the “extra” insulation package that came with your car.
Because the original underlayment was heavy, cracked and broke apart typically most of our cars have had it removed by prior owners. So most no longer have any in their car and in turn, no clue that it was ever present
