Topic: 1969 Dearborn Mach 1 Hood Blackout Layout Pictures

[Road Reptile]

Hi 69 folks,
I am repainting the hood blackout on a 69 Mach 1 and would like some pictures of an original paint car that show the layout of the front of the hood to figure out the correct radius on the left/right sides. Measurements would also be great if possible.
Thanks !
Regards R.R.

Maybe this will help.

Should be able to search the web for the Mustang Monthly article from 20 years ago what had a templet for the radius and other details (including the original paint code. In addition some additional details are included in the 69 Assembly Manual

I'm guessing you already did the search of the site and looked at the half dozen or more related threads.

Don't know if this will help you or not. 10 years ago at an MCA Nat's in Johnson City,TN, I was fortunate enough to be able to take some photos with a 35MM camera of an original paint 69 Mach 1. Here are some photos of the black out on the hood with pin stripes. These photos are 4x6 and I took them about 12-15 " away from the hood surface.
Hope this helps.

Did you happen to get the VIN so that we know where the car was painted?

Here is a picture (not as good as a template    from 9F02M2141xx

No, that's why I said,  "don't know if this will help you or not"

I thought this lay out looked pretty accurate and even has some numbers to help with the lay out.  Brian
