Hey all, I have been working hard on the car lately putting every little thing together. One thing in particular that I have done is installed the acoustishield sound deaden er material. This is a kit that we bought specifically designed for the 67 mustang, It makes the car much more quiet inside and also keeps it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The kit takes a long time to install because their is several steps and EVERYTHING is covered with it. First of all you apply the Dyna mat strips that deaden vibration, and then you glue on the acoustishield matting over the top of it.
Some other stuff I have done include hanging the pedals in the car, brake master cylinder and booster, wiper arms and motor, and I also have the air conditioner and heater box mounted on the firewall. The condenser and radiator are in, the A/C compressor is mounted up on the engine with some modifications! Turned out that they welded the mount bracket wrong for the A/C so I had to cut it and re weld it. After about a half a day I got all the brackets fitting and the belts lined up perfect, now all I have to do is put one more belt on and install the clutch fan and shroud. As soon as I get the air conditioner lines all ran and completed I am going to move on to wiring the car....fun fun fun. Once again their are videos posted up on youtube.com

Andy,
I'm getting ready to look at carpeting in my car. I thought about just getting the mat that goes under certain parts of the carpet from cjponyparts.com but after seeing what you did here I know it will make a big difference in the sound. What level of difficulty would say installing this falls under? Can you give some examples of other projects that are similar in difficulty? for example, I would never attempt to install a headliner but would probably try installing the carpet. Also, where did you purchase the kit from? Thanks for all your help.
Josh
