outers are sill plates for the early Gen cars the inners are carpet hold down trim or inner scuff plate molding. I could care less what others call them since they aren't correct for the early applications later applications
incorporated the inner hold down and the outer sill plate into one...
they aren't sill plates for sure , they are called carpet hold down molding or trim. They hide the wires and hold the carpeting in place. While these are called Sill plates, Scuff plate or threshold plates. I make replacement sill plates (custom or the boring stock shaped ones) and may be...
I had a customer make a longer outer sweep for his 66 dart from a 70 challenger set. then he complained that it was scratching his SS divider post (I told him it would eventually rub scratches in it if he used it a lot.) I had to take the longer one off and replace it with the original one I was...
I use it to strip anodizing off of aluminum trim, dash bezels and pretty much any chrome plates plastics. 30 years and haven't cooked a part yet, :thumbsup:
I work at a trim shop doing custom leather interiors for slab sided lincolns (nope not a sewer) it takes a special kind of seamstress /seamster to do a good job on the seats. #1- you have to be semi familiar with the seats setup. #2- sew a straight line for over 9 inches guide free and fast (90%...
Hold back on your carpet and just order from ACC. they are pretty much the only player left that makes a "close to almost fitting carpet set. (specially for Loop style carpet. on earlier A's) same with the floor mats, if you want carpeted with logo's. it's where legendary gets the floor mats...
2 years waiting for my 70 challenger, then I got a part time job at a trim shop and made mine for the wife's 66 dart. (8 weeks total for this rookie to sew then up)
IF you are looking for a direct match for 60 year old windlace , unless you get it from SMS and make your own it just WON'T happen. they don't make the colors to match anymore. it's all about what you can find that's closest. I work in a leather custom trim shop and have to hand make windlace...
$99.00 plus shipping and handling usually done in a week (just a few bucks more than original skinny lined ones, and yeah I can do those too) Got a few sets working right now but I can custom bend form and engrave outer scuff/sill plates for the early A's 63-66 Darts. Valiants and 64-66 (long...
Good Deal getting it together and working. just be thankful you don't have the rear quarter windows to do. they are Bassackwards mounting and a total pain in the behind to align, Now I know why early A's didn't get power windows (but I still am doing it on the other convertible anyways:D) and...
1996 sebring seats (front and back in my convertible) using the corvair kid wiring diagram so they DO work like they should. and they ARE comfortable compared to stock seat plus the power adjustable seats as great for my old bones.
