Ok. Final trim came from Wildcat and I cleaned, prepped and painted it to match the rest of the interior. Thought it was blue until I cleaned it and found it was green. Back window seal is still leaking and my attempt to seal it has failed. Done trying, time to call a professional glass guy to figure it out. Held off on interior install until Wednesday.

looking good. What floor coating is that?
 
I do believe it was rust oleum rubberized paintable undercoat. I just need to touch up trunk spatter then install interior.
 
Those seats are great. Same one that I put in mine. I like the look of buckets with the ease of a bench. Great for the Drive-in. :lovestor:
 
A couple interior pics. Needs a good bath and a few final trim pieces for seat hinges and door handles. Radio going in next week. Headliner was built by hand and is off a touch so I will have to fabricate a piece of molding/trim to cover the gap. I did not make it so all I can say is measure twice...cut once.

I just saw a 74 and a 72 that looked like turds listed for more than 8k...my car must be worth a small fortune!
 
Great car! I'm starting my '73 Swinger this week. Looks like I'm in for a long road.

One question, has anyone found a way to lower these Darts without major changes to the geometry? I would like to address the ride height, maybe lower 2-3".
 
Taking the car to my first cruise in this week....should be fun. Finally getting my trans back for the wife's Camaro and will go deep into that soon. anyone know where I can get some cool floor mats for this 74?
 
Hey Man the Dart is looking really great congratulations. And the Chevy aint too shabby either....
