Title: 67 NOS trunk mat question
Post by: 64cobra on September 09, 2023, 01:05:32 PM
From the Curt Cox collection (and Jim Cowles)

Anyone know what this NOS mat is used on?   Im assuming its a service part since it has a felt backing.  Didnt know if late 67's went to this backing in production.

I don't think any 67 Mustang or Shelby came with that style padding late production or not given early 68 production Mustang or Shelby used the same burtex padding as 67 on the plaid mats found in some of those cars. Those observations would support the later service style material not being used until later 68 at the earliest.   I suspect it is at least a 70's mfg item based on the material even though the mat may be made for a earlier pre 70 application.
