Royce, Actually I dont think what I am showing there is correct.  If you look closely there is no way to seal it with a gasket or washer.  That beveled edge would not allow that. 

Here is what I would consider correct and I think you are referring to:

Looking for a fill plug for a factory 9 inch rear end for a 1967....but should be the same for a 1966 as well.  Im not aware anyone makes a reproduction of this?
The fill plug I have doesnt seem right with the beveled edges so dont think this will seal correctly.  If anyone has an extra let me know.

Ford part number - Axle Filler Plug 379166-S

1969 1970 Shelby front seats.  I have these listed on Ebay right now but also posting here.  Pretty much impossible to find a set of original seats like in this condition anymore.  Can be installed as is....the one seat back has two screws in it so probably would change that out.  But this is original comfortweave material and soft and plyable still.  Contact me with any questions or need more photos or information. 

Shipping can be done thru a crating and freight service here in Phoenix if needed.

Asking $2200.

I have a project in the shop Im working on now for a 1969 GT500.  Looking for original air conditioning lines that are under the hood......this is for a 428 car.  Email or call me if you have something you can help with.

So yes....it appears to be the light of a step bumper pickup truck originally.
The DOTZ-13564-A version is threaded on the back so not sure there is enough space to get that in there. 

Ill work on a solution and post here when I have something that looks good. 

Agreed Bob...looks like I will need to make something so this works from the best choices I have out there. 

Well.....guessing by whats stamped on the originals it came originally from a 1964.  Looks like they sell something that sure looks the same...not sure if it fits.

Looking for a nice used set of license plate light caps that are on the rear panel.  Missing a set if anyone out there has an extra set let me know.  Not sure why they are missing....but thats how alot of these projects go.      Call or email me if you can help.

Yes...for sure a picture is worth a thousand words.  Thanks everyone for their input and suggestions.  May as well post a photo here of the working fog lights.  Added another 50 miles on the car yesterday.

Thanks for all the input.  I was able to fix the fog lights and isolated two problems.

Problem 1:
The reproduction fog light wire harness has two wires that are crossed.  Not sure why.  I was able to do a side by side comparison and also trace the wires so that I could confirm they are wrong.  I have two reproduction harnesses and one original.  Both reproductions are incorrect so anyone else doing this will have the same problem with the current harness you can buy.  Original harness is on the top in the photo. 

Problem 2:
One of the fog lights had a short in it.  That was causing a problem in the system.  When I disconnected it and replaced it with another one it works perfect now.

I have it all sorted out....I will post an update with photos later tonight. 

So a copy and paste what Bob Gaines posted on another thread is exactly how I have things wired.....so I must have some other issues.  Working thru that now to figure it out.

The separate fog light harness is the one you are talking about. The longest black 10 gauge wire with stepped terminal end goes on the positive side terminal of the starter solenoid . The shorter black/yellow 10 gauge wire goes to the junction block. The 10 gauge black and yellow power wire from the alternator also goes to the junction block. The 22 gauge black wire coming out of the fog light harness is a ground that goes to the regulator /condenser screw.  With this wiring configuration all of the power from the alternator runs through the amp gauge and back to the the battery and rest of the electrical system. I hope this helps.

Im chasing an electrical issue here tonight on a 69 GT500 I am finishing.  Everything runs and drives and works perfect....except the fog lights. 

Inside the car the interior light switch works with no problem in the console.  But when turning on the fog light switch it just clicks the relay on and off every 5 seconds and the fog lights never turn on.  I  have a complete extra gauge and switch console that I swapped out and does the exact same thing.

So I think something isnt wired here correctly.  Can someone confirm the routing of the three wires here at the voltage regulator, starter solenoid, junction block? 
First picture below is just a reference photo I pulled from Bring a Trailer (Nate Jones) Shelby that recently sold.
