Are you wanting a '69 (concourse correct) or will a '70 do? There is a small difference between them. Both fit the same.

I would not be surprised if a Falcon one from around the same era would be the same.

Not sure how easy it might to get one of those ...

Cheers,
Frank.

How about this one ... new .. in the States .. check suitability for a Mustang but it has a C9AZ XXXX part number? Only $25 US and postage probably on another $25?

I thought he was after the piece that bolts onto the hood, and that the latch holds on to when closed?

I doubt that's even a mustang part, the lever to activate the catch should be out the front not the side. The part number should be C9ZZ-16700-A

jbrucem1, I have a spare '70 striker, send you an email tonight

Speak with BLKPNY. He is getting a 68 hood latch for me. Fair price too.
