Anyone watched it yet? Pretty sure they're driving a 64ish Dart Convertible in Saigon??

I'm looking for an interior screw kit and haven't found any specific to this car. The biggest thing I need are dash trim screws, then there are other misc ones that have been substituted over time. I figure it would be nice just to have a set to replace any or all I need. The closest thing...

But the odometer worked even with the needle not moving?

It was bouncing and sticking, then quit moving. Odometer works so I know the cable is good. I got a decent deal on the whole cluster so it made it easy. Where can I get the overlays?

What exactly did you do do your instruments? I have a problem with my speedo so I just bought another cluster, ordered a new circuit panel and LEDs, so want to have them 100% when I put them back together.

I haven't pulled the door apart yet, but figured I'd see what anyone has to say ahead of time. My driver's window needs help rolling up and then when it's up "leans" back. Almost impossible to close the door with the window up. Any tips on how the regulator works in a convertible? Is it shot...

Any traction on getting them made?

How is it? Seems like they having it so often might cut down the quality?

I'm working in Corona and heard an ad for the Pomona Swap Meet this weekend. Anybody here going to be there?

Look at Legendary if you haven't. You can get original style or customize inserts, stitching, etc. These are the basic black I got that were original style to a 66 GT. 66 Dart GT Convertible Interior

My dad bought this car I believe in 2005 and was always working on something over the years. I don't know that he ever had it on the road for very long at a time. I inherited it last year and fixed and finished a bunch of stuff and have it pretty reliable at this point.

Yeah I need them, how much?

Yeah, I figure long term I'll watch for some original or maybe buy some from Legendary or somewhere. Building them was a quick fix for now.

We'll I've got it mostly together. When I inherited it from my dad last summer the gas pedal was on the left side (right leg amputee), steering column was out, some of the dash trim was missing, no radio, seats were random mismatched, no door panels and rear side panels were in pieces. Seems...

I knew I had seen it used for other stuff, I might try that first.
