Motor mount recall Dec.4/71
I seen today a description of the recall on the Facebook page for Speedway Motors, I had heard of the recall but didn't know of the cable/bracket fix, now I know that this must be the fix on my 69, I have had several trucks and cars over the years within the recall period but this is the first I have seen it actually in place.
Does anyone else have this on their trucks ? Sorry about the poor pics. I have the inner fender off for brake/power steer upgrade. So that helped! I'm sure the clamshell style replaced these for those reasons, the article says trucks 65-70 affected.

Just to add, 70 was the last year for the solid rod throttle linkage. 71 went to the cable style which wouldn't bind up if a motor mount broke.

Re: Motor mount recall Dec.4/71
This is strange, I was just looking into this myself after working on mine this weekend. I remembered some sort of restraint being installed but not the details. Per the pictures I'm missing the engine bracket and cable
