trunk light for 69/70 shelby
1970shelbyguy:
any idea what's the correct trunk light assembly for a 69/70 shelby -sportsroof if different from converts. regular c9 z mustang or a cougar one? thanks
specialed:
the only difference is fastback has extra ground wire that runs along side of regular c9zb trunk wire.

hi ed- i believe the whole light was installed prior to painting the lid.- correct? - was light bracket painted also or just the wire had some overspray on it. how about the little wiring retainer that hooks into underside of lid ? painted also? i do have a light- my trunk lid was a repo but i now have an orig with the metal reniforcing mount brackets rivited to lid. was blk jade and you could see the shadow where the light bracket was mounted- no paint ( primer showing) i'll have to dig it my light out prior to final paint on the lid. did you get to see Barret Jackson?
1970shelbyguy:
i came across ed's response about the trunk light detail on the SAAC forum. lite was taped with masking tape. can't keep up with all these forums! glad the experts are!

Posting this here also to give an idea of how the masking tape was applied sometimes. Notice this is an example of a metal frame trunk lid - black under the tape rather than the pinkish fiberglass color since this is a metal liner trunk lid.
