Do you have a photo of the firewall pad used for '69 at San Jose ? so we can see the texture and try to replicate it.

Yes older thread but got an opportunity to shot some pictures of a 69 SJ Mach I yesterday that relates to this subject. Also wanted to demonstrate we don't give up and try to remember to look for details well after the threads have "passed on" :)


Mid March 69 projected build date - Same time period (approximately) as rockhouse66's car

Interesting Guess (as often happens) we need to continue collecting examples to see if there was normally two different suppliers or a Normal and a sometime/almost never or there was an odd ball one ;)

Glad you save it - well enough to take some good pictures
