Title: 70 Boss 302 w/Calif Evap - inside trunk photo's
Post by: 7mustangs on October 02, 2020, 07:53:09 PM

I am doing a concourse restoration on a 70 Dearborn built Boss 302. Mine is a California car with the emissions system.
It has a non fold down rear seat. I am looking for pictures of the trunk compartment. I need to know where the mat gets cut to fit accurately. Also of the space saver spare filler bottle and jack set up.
Thanks   Ken

These are great. Are there any measurements to go with them? Hard to make mine look right without measurements.

Fair number space saver bottom and mount picture threads. Some pretty recent. Suggest the search rather than repeating. If you don't get everything you need from those then ask about the specific need.

See you've found some related and unrelated threads already

Pictures of an original. Looks like this picture was taken after the bottom one since the corners and edges were not tucked in place. Hope they help

Hi Jeff or anyone.,

The second photo you posted on the 70 Boss 302w / Calif Evap shows a rusted section around a hole.

Could you tell us more about the reason this area was not treated by the factory and the purpose of this hole.

that is a dolly mark. it is where the unibody was fastened to the skid on the assy. line. do a search here for more info. also look into the library for how to recreate those.
