Shifter bezel installed for automatic transmission | 71 72 73 Mustang Fastback. This shifter bezel really makes the floor console area stand out. The old bezel was tired and worn out.

Carpet Kit 71 72 73 Ford Mustang Fastback in Black

This post is a little update on the fitment of the new carpet kit purchased at CJ Pony Parts. This carpet kit is molded exceptionally well and matches all of the curves and contours of the original Mustang floor. The carpet’s edges are left longer than you need to allow for a sure fit under the […]

Mustang A Pillar Interior Trim Ford Fastback 71 72 73

Mustang Fastback A Pillar Trim Arrives 71 72 73 Pillar Post. Quite possibly one of the hardest parts to find for the interior of the 71-73 Mustang is the “A” Pillar posts. These are not re-manufactured as of yet. I am very happy to say that my pair has finally arrived! I purchased them from […]

Installing Wiper Switch Bezel 71 72 73 Mustang

Installing Wiper Switch Bezel 71 72 73 Mustang

Installing Wiper Switch Bezel 71 72 73 Mustang. To the best of my knowledge, the aftermarket does not specifically manufacture the dash bezel trim for the 71-73 Mustang. Instead, they manufacture it for a 1970 model. The bezels you see on my website are specifically for the 70 Mustang, but they will work on a […]

Bringing back the appearance of chrome to the A/C vents

Bringing back the appearance of chrome to the A/C vents. A few weeks ago I saw a friend do a post on his YouTube channel showing how to revive a dashboard panel with a $5.00 paint pen. You can see Tyler’s video here. I have to give credit to “whosaidtyler” for this tip. Anyhoo… I ordered a new center dash air conditioning vent from a person on ebay. Overall, the vent was in excellent shape except for the lack of chroming on the a/c vent directors. This is now a very simple fix… Using a silver permanent paint pen ($5.00) and some normal household rubbing alcohol (as a prep) keep a very steady hand and run the pen along the surface that used to be chrome or silver. The end result is a shockingly nice appearance of chrome or accent silver. It looks very clean, crisp, and brings new life into an old part! Thanks Tyler! Check out my pictures below.

Air Conditioning Heater Control Switch Anatomy 71 72 73 Classic Ford Mustang. Today I am restoring and cleaning up the old air conditioning controls.

Installing FatMat Sound Deadener In Mustang Classic Car

Installing FatMat Sound Deadener In Mustang Classic Car: Prepping the floor

Installing FatMat Sound Deadener In Mustang Classic Car. The old 72 Mustang was in need of a fresh carpet installation. I decided to prepare the floor with a sound deadening material. I made the choice of using FatMat over Dynamat for two reasons. One, was the price and two, the FatMat had just as many […]
