GT/CS Tail Light Panel Came!!!
yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!! it finally cam after like 2 months of waiting!!!
its the kind with built in tail light buckets.i guess u just drill through the built in bucket with a hole saw or something and put the socket through it and it sits in there....
the california special decklid and quarter panel extentions is supposidely going to come on friday.....AWESOME.
what how do you reccomend screwing this thing onto the car??? drill holes in fiberglass then use somethin to mark through the holes or something onto the metal an then drill that first then use a screw through both....
i feel if i just start screwing both on straight up with no starter holes the thing will shift a lot and stuff......some help me on this.

You can do it that way or drill with self tappers. I would not recommed drill through both at the same time. One slip and ****!!!! Caracked the panel.
Where did you get the deck lid and quarter cap extensions? I am going to order the same set up next week. How mucho?

RE: GT/CS Tail Light Panel Came!!!
i highly reccomend ordering it all from trophymustang.com
they have the best prices, no tax, and the cheapest shipping and it pretty much all ships fedex or UPS, not truck freight, which is very nice. Also, good customer service...prompt same day email responses and stuff.
heres the price list....i order in two seperate orders as i got the dough....i ordered the fiberglass parts first as they take a while to be hand made.
Products
1 x Tail Light Panel w/Built in Buckets $225.00
1 x Cp CV End Caps $130.00
1 x Coupe CV Deck Lid $355.00
1 x 1968-70 Shelby T/L Lens Gasket $8.95
2 x 1968-70 Shelby Tail Lamp Lens $83.90
2 x 1968-70 Shelby Tail Lamp Bezel $167.24
6 x 1967-73 Parking Lamp Bulb $17.70
1 x Sequential Control Modules $104.55
1 x Electronic Variable Flasher $14.95
+ Shipping - Table Rate (Shipping Total): $22.95 (refunded the $16.95 dollar shipping for the second order of all the small parts because the other order was still not shipped yet cuz they handnt recieved all the fiberglass parts...pretty cool. Even if they didnt refund it, its still way less than what comparable mustang places charge....from other places you'd think they were flying it in on a private jet right to your driveway, and they handnt built the jet yet, or hired the pilot, so the price includes those things as well as the actual shipping...i feel for you up in Alaska....im in San Francisco and still complain...)
__________________________________________________ ______
TOTAL - $1170.14
NOTE: The quality of this tail light panel is incredible...the light lenses and bezels seem to fit perfectly into it and its really thick fiberglass...not as chinsy as say, my R-Model front apron from Virgina Classic Mustang...that thing fits like crap also...i held this one up and it seems to go right in....

I used to live off Bush downtown but I just moved to Daly City (now I have a garage!)
I have a bunch of friends that go to the Academy they really like it. I'm at SFSU now...
I've got a lot of tools so if you bring your car up feel free to hit me up
