Should be like the one on my 70, it will only go on one way. It has a groove in it that slips under the lip of the trunk to keep it in place. I didn't even have to glue mine to keep it in place.

Decided to cruise down to Myrtle beach and do a little shakedown. About 75 miles one way. Plus we cruised around quite a bit down there. Nice and sunny in high 50's. Car ran great!
I put Hush Matt in Sunday night. Had enough to do the roof, floor and kick panel areas. Well worth the money spent on the matt.
Sunday during the day I installed new fuel tank/ sender and the nitrous bottle.

How much of a difference did the hush mat make? Was it pretty easy to form to the floor?New tank and bottle look nice too!

Hush matt was a breeze to install. I suggest a small wooden hand roller to really get it pressed in good. I wore my fingers out
I will be buying more to do the entire car. Well worth it. Very noticeable difference.

Default 72 Driver NorthCarolina UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Well with just over 1,800. miles my Chinese all aluminum radiator (Champion) started leaking were the tanks meet the core. Both sides, top to bottom. They do have a lifetime warranty. But its $29.00 shipping each way. Its just over $80.00 for a Chinese alum/plastic radiator here local.
So I bellied up for the new local rad. I need to keep driving it. To get warranty I need to ship first rad to west coast. Hopefully they will replace it with a new one. That I will sell or keep as spare.

I hated to spend the money, but bought a Dewitt for my 72'. I forsee buying another for the 69' when the time comes.
