The J hooks are the same as used on 65,66,67 Mustang heater delete and also Falcon too. Info might help so you can widen your net. Worst case scenario you can make some presentable looking ones that look acceptable from the visible side out of all thread. of course you will have to strip off the plating with a dunk in some muriatic acid for about 3 minutes. the original finish was P/O.  I doubt you will find a heater delete firewall pad but some people beat the high odds of winning the lottery too. You probably will have to take a nice typical heater installed firewall pad and cut the material out of a donor to place in the heater motor hole. Best of luck with your search.

Just curious, do you need it for a heater delete car or something else. If it's for a heater delete car,  what's the DSO on the door. I'm trying to determine where you could delete the heaters. So far I have info on a handful of Canadian cars and one Hawaiian 69 Mach1. I'm pretty sure that defrosters were a DOT requirement in at least the 48 contiguous states ...

If you find 2   ::) ::) ::) I've been looking for years for a 68 heater delete vent that wasn't broken at the flange, it appears that they were flimsy to begin with and they broke when people hit them with there feet. The J bolts look like they easy to make an almost perfect copy ...

I think the only thing harder to find is the dash plate for a 69/70 heater delete car .

We have a 68 GTCS sold in Honolulu that has the heater delete option.

How about some pictures for those of us that have never seen this?  Sounds interesting.

Lets post them over in the discussion area rather than add to a wanted ads ;)  Think I have at least one example of a 68 heater delete also

Likely best to start different discussions by year in their individual sections

There is already a 68 Heater delete thread

http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=2527.msg14683#msg14683

A 69/70 one  (from before the year split)

http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=8745.msg50929#msg50929

One example in the unrestored picture thread under 70 Metuchen H code Mach I - Dec Build

And a general one

In the link to the 68 heater delete thread that is actually a 67 delete panel shown..I found all the parts a few years ago to put heater delete in both my 67 (std int) and my 68 (deluxe int)...vent boxes were very hard to find..

Are you referring to the plate for the heater control panel and what do you believe are the differences between one  for the standard 67 and the 68 standard interior are?:
