I wouldn't worry about the plate for the switches, there are already two factory screws there that hold the center console and dash together so that's what he would have used to mount that plate. Can't be sure about the tach/shift light. Not sure whats up with that black square around the shifter, it doesn't look right. With the deluxe door panels I believe it should have a full floor console but I'm speculating on that as it makes sense to me they would go together.
I was there when this look was popular and I hated it then. No evidence of extended shackles, so it must be air shocks or coilovers. Either is a disaster for handling and the structural safety of the crossmember.

They have all the old factory build records for Mustang VINs back to 1967.
With the deluxe report, you can see what options and configuration your car was built with and production numbers built with those options to see how rare the car really is.

It has a price guide for old cars to give you an idea of what your car may be worth with it's options. I think the numbers are inflated, compared to what you could actually sell it for, but it gives you an idea of what cars with various options are comparitivly worth.

SOLD!
SOLD... Just bought another... VIN 1F05HI02938 for $3,000. Been sitting in a garage since 1984 @ 23,000 miles. Why do people do what they do? But I'm glad they do! All stock, original rims/centers in the (little) trunk. Built just like the one I had in high-school... Except it's a different color. Needs to be re-painted anyway.

So… ALL 1971 Mach-1’s had dual exhausts?
My apologies... I didn't take photos. It went directly to the shop for dismantling. But I will make a visit in the next weeks and will take photos then.
