Pictures of the original sealant after an original tank was removed
Is the plastic sheath all that was used in67? I can’t locate one so I am going to have to make something unless I can get some more guidance form the pros here.
See you have a May 17th finished example. Don't see the sheath often at all on 67 San Jose cars. Not sure why they were used other than possibly a test. 1968's with them are really rare to find also. We've done a survey of the retainers for all three plants for 68 production over on CMF But only a very small number have been found on 67's
Looking at pictures I see a couple of other examples with them also but have not cross referenced the Ford VINs to see if I can find more in that range as far as Mustangs go
The vast IMHO majority of cars were supplied with the typical rubber dipped metal clips attached to the fuel tank opening lip as shown below
Fuel tank sealant is a gray in this picture due to air and sun exposure over the years of sitting in a yard
Sorry don't have a clear 67 strip/sheave picture handy only 68's. Will look
