Had I known you needed a package tray, i woulda sent you a paper template in the mail. I made mine for both cars out of free 1/8" masonite I got from work. At my work the vendor that sends us our aircraft sheetmetal, lines the bottoms of the pallets with it. They just pitch it in the trash, I took it home lol . Gonna glue black naugahyde on it, add my period correct 6x9 metal speaker grille covers after I paint em semigloss black. For sonny's car I got some ram van 6x9 door speaker grille covers. I also made trunk divider panels for both cudas out of 1/8" masonite. I made the spare tire boards out of a thicker version of this stuff too.
Checked out the wire harnesses, cleaned it up and installed it. Along with the plastic body plugs., dash and pedals.
Supposed to get the interior parts tomorrow.

Those pop up all the time on here. Shouldn't be too hard to get one.
Do you know off hand what fits it ?
I think 67-72 fits, but not 100% sure.
That's pretty much what I was thinking. It's pretty low on my priority list..might need AC first. Lol
Al you're gittin it did!
Yes I is. I have way to much time on my hands.
Well you can come over and help me I'll keep you busy.

Ha! Not before I put him to work first!
Haven't been much progress on the car, been visiting family and friends for about the last month. On the east coast of Florida in Sebastian visiting my daughter and son inlaw this weekend. Be back at it in a couple days.
Heck with u all, he should come to Hawaii and help me ! Haha lol
Would love to my sister is there and wants me to come visit her but wanting to get my Scamp done before summer.
Got a bunch of new parts. Already installed some. Headliner and jute insulation. All the cat whiskers
I put some shoulder belt mounts in before I installed the headliner. I used some old floor mounts from the old floor I cut out. Cut them down to fit in the square hole and just welded them in. All good for later if I decide to put 3pt belts in.
Nothing better than an early Christmas gift of parts. Looking good Al.
Let me know how that glove box fits I need one and wondering how good they fit also the gas tank rubber they both look the same as mine.

I will have to stretch the headliner a bit when installing the front and rear glass
Hope it turns out better than it looks now.

Iv'e done a few years ago and found that if you stretch them out vise grip and paint sticks on the front and back glass pinch weld and let them sit over night then glue them down.
Just a thought.
I have shoulder belts and holders if need be Al.
Nice work!
Nice work!
Hey Fred , I got the Box liner from Vansauto on EBAY. Says it fits 67. $26 shipped, He sells all kinds of mopar stuff pretty reasonable. Seems to fit ok. Looks well made for cardboard . LOL. Hey I like the idea of some glue on the headliner. PITA with no helper.
Steve , I have a complete set of 68 belts. ( JUNK ) I have just enough 67 for front lap belts. Also some brackets that go on with the sun visors to clip the shoulder belt on when not in use. Man I could use some pics of how the belts are supposed to look installed. AND I just remembered there was 2 little brackets with a snap for the shoulder belts to, should have been installed under the headliner, damit. What do you have for extra belts ?
I have the brackets for the shoulder belt in my head liner if you need some pictures. I think they are the same.
