"No",we will say,"we are not drunken,as ye suppose,seeing it is but the third hour of the day"..."We drive Ford trucks with bad cowl lacing"...

And then they all began to babble as the spirit of Henry Ford gave them utterance!

I had purchased a Dennis Carpenter lacing a week ago or so. Checked tonight and it looks correct and appears all the green clips are in the correct spots. I do see in their catalog 3 different ones available.
1967 only
68-69 only
70-72 only

Interesting! OK, I have a '67 cab and a '68 cab...I guess I'll have to measure the difference in the mounting holes to see what the difference might have been. Somebody with a '70-'72 cab will have to measure that for me though.

The 1967 lacing kit from Dennis Carpenter reads "with plastic fasteners"
C7TZ.16740.A
The 1968-69` reads "mounting clips installed" C8TZ.16740.A
The 70-72 reads "mounting clips installed" DOTZ.16740.A

Hey,that guy's got a Bud lite sitting on his truck...

As a side note,on the door window channel gaskets,Ford changed those in mid-year 1970,and replacements don't interchange....Just thought I'd throw that in,no charge...

I just bought the cowl lacing. Which way is up? Does it mount like this "L", or flipped around 180 degrees, an upside down "L"?
