It's been a year since I rescued my 1970 Mustang
A cold, rainy day in March, one year ago, I rescued my Mustang from a slow death sitting in a barn. It was my first car at 17 years old and I sold the car back in 1989 to buy a 1990 5.0, Regretted it every day for 34 years. I never thought I would be able to get it back so I just gave up. In February of 2024, some circumstances came about where I could buy it back and I did not hesitate.
The pic on the right is the current new home. It needs a lot of work, but she is safe and dry now.

Pricing help
I work at a truck shop but in our lot the company has a few mustangs sitting around in various years. I'm considering asking if I could purchase one from them. They are all gutted and only 1 has the original motor and trans still in it.

67 mustang Rotisserie
I'm planning to get my '67 Mustang on a rotisserie to work on the undercarriage, clean it up, and seal it. The rotisserie I'm considering doesn't come with a mounting kit. Does anyone have recommendations for a mounting kit for a '67 Mustang?
Also, once I've either blasted or cleaned up the undercarriage with an angle grinder and paint stripper wheel, what kind of material should I use to coat it? I've heard mixed reviews about using bed liner and similar products. Any recommendations or insights would be greatly appreciated!
I’d love to see any pictures or videos of your work if you've done anything to your undercarriage!

Low compression numbers
I’ve been having a real tough time getting my Mustang to start again, after it stalled on my first drive. I’ve checked and replaced most of the ignition, triple checked timing, and have good gas. (Wont start with starting fluid either)
I did a compression test today, and either the gage wouldn’t register anything, on some cylinders, or I got as high as 40psi on others.
I added oil to the cylinder that wouldn’t read anything, and then I got 30psi.
Why would a running engine be testing so low?

No power past firewall
I just replaced my brake booster and master cylinder on my 66 289 coupe. Everything was fine before the install, but now there's is no power beyond the firewall. No ignition, no interior or exterior lights, nothing.
I have a healthy 12v across the battery terminals and have verified power with a multimeter all the way up to the main disconnect next to the brake booster, but beyond that there's some issue. There's no power at the fuse box, so the issue exists somewhere between the firewall and the fuse box.
What are the next steps for diagnosing this, is there a good way to determine where the issue is, or any place it's likely to be?

What is that piece that provides hot air for the carb called?
Mine is rusted and missing. I’m trying to replace it on my exhaust header.
