as an FYI, my car was built 6/13/69 at Dearborn.  Based on this, if there are any nuances that would help me, I would appreciate it.

Your car (been a long thread so can't recall its current condition) will be your best guide for many details if it hasn't been played with too much. Since there are so many details you might want to break down the questions by area as going through the whole car at one time will be confusing, very very long and there is a greater chance  to miss something.

If the car has not already been redone once or more check what color the main floor was as well as the front wheel wells and frame rails.  You will need this for later

you saw in my prior pic how my car was sprayed in that dark charcoal black batch paint mixture with the red overspray on the ribs. May 6 build. My friend's original paint 69 Boss 429 survivor is different than mine. His built in April. Dependent on batch paint colors and how the sprayers on the line were working all make for very unique undersides in my opinion. Gary
