1967-70 Mustang Fastback Rear Seat Latch Catch

We just received another new part!  It's the 1967-70 Mustang Fastback Rear Seat Latch Guide.  This part fits on the chrome rear seat trim and fits on the side where the seat latch clicks in place when the rear seat is in the up position.

We have gotten quite a few calls about this part, and we are really happy that it is finally available.

The part is made just like the original in metal with a beautiful chrome finish.  Our part number is IN-6821.

Today we have still more pictures of Jeremy Turner's 1965 Mustang convertible in his shop, Maple Hill Restoration.

The vent window frames have now been completely restored, assembled and installed along with all of the polished stainless steel windshield molding, rear trim molding and door glass with the associated parts.

The front suspension is detailed and has been installed.  All of the paint markings were carefully duplicated from the original pieces such as the green stripes on the front coil springs.  Check out the "64" stamped date on the carefully restored lower control arms too!

Enjoy the pictures!

The original vent window frames for the Mustang were re-chromed.  The stainless steel parts were polished, other parts were detailed, and everything was carefully assembled.

Hopefully, you have been following along with the restoration of this beautiful, Twilight Turquoise 1965 Mustang Convertible in the shop at Maple Hill Restoration.

Today, we have some pictures as Jeremy paints the 200 six cylinder engine that is going in the Mustang.  The engine was prepared and all parts were shot with epoxy primer first.  It was then assembled, masked off, and painted with the correct level of gloss, black paint.

Also check out the pictures of the cool engine drop hoist that Jeremy built to install this engine.  Soon, we will have pictures of the detailed engine with all of the accessories bolted on.  We can't wait to see it!!
