Oops! Mass back carpeting. 
Had dynamat on my mind while typing

I used ACC mat back carpeting. It laid right down into place and was even better after a couple weeks. Also used a Dynamat type sound deadening product.

Dave. Probably should have included this photo.
If you zoom in you'll see where I had to trim at the sill.

I just did mine not long ago. It's fairly easy IF you make small cuts at a time. One place you'll have to trim is the overlap of the front carpet over the rear. The place that needs trimming is at door sill. The overlap is too thick for the sill to lay down properly.
Just a little trimming is all it takes. It'll be obvious.
Another area is at the kick panels. The carpet runs too far up behind the panel and causes it to bulge.
Take care here. I nearly cut mine too short at the floor. Lastly, don't forget to cut your holes for the front outboard seat belts before you install your door sills.  I forgot. It's actually pretty easy.. good luck.

That lumping hammer sounds like a good idea. But for me, I would need two because sometimes I feel like playing a damn drum solo on these things!

Easy to do. Comes out in one piece. Complete rebuild kit available while you have it out.

More than a few of my friends back in the day, witnessed my 67 pulling the front up. Not far. 6 or 7 inches. But still off the ground. Not as hard as some may think. (I cheated a little bit. 427 toploader)

I was always under the impression that the castings on these heads were 427 low risers actually used in early cobras? No?

Thoughts on Blue Thunder lemans valve covers.
I am not concours correct as I will be running a
Tunnel port. Would like it to appear somewhat
Period correct? Thanks

Just purchased some NOS fender emblems. (2 piece). Of course the glue has dried up over the years. Any suggestions for attaching the sticker to the plate? Thanks

I spent enough time to kill three rechargeable batteries on my Makita cordless drill with a brass wire brush on it, cleaning surface rust off cast iron parts for refinishing.  Bellhousing, strut rods, spindles, coil springs, motor mounts, steering shaft, clutch fork.  Fun times in the 40 degree shop.

Kinda like this!?

Interesting information. Thank you

I realize jealousy is not a virtue, but Damn!  Congrats

Thank you.
