Great car!

First shakedown run yesterday, made a four mile loop and back. Still have a small punch list of items but getting really close now.

Thanks, found a set.

I need the two weatherstrip retainers that mount to the roofline at the top of the doors for my 1969 Dart GTS. Attached is a picture of a similar retainer.

Beautiful car.

Good question, I’m using the ones that are similar to the drawings in the shop manual.

Having issues with reproduction windshield trim fitting correctly. Looking for a good set of originals.

Having a horrible time installing new reproduction windshield trim on my 1969 Dart GTS. Has anyone had similar issues, are they accurate to original pieces? My car was missing it’s original trim. Back glass went on easily but windshield won’t snap down tight.

Installed the rear trunk trim panel. As mentioned in an earlier post I had decided to leave the dealership ID that was originally riveted on when the car was sold. Hutton-Scott Dodge in Charlotte sponsored Buddy Baker in a 1965 Dodge for a time in NASCAR back when individual dealerships could...

Windshield is installed, waiting on trim out.

Thanks, you wouldn’t believe the number of young people that have seen it and asked if it had a custom color.

That’s a very nice color combo, I bet the white stripe is a more rare combo.

Carpet laid out to reduce memory before installing trim and seats. A little dirty from shop dust.

Rear glass installed, surround trim installation next. Taped off trunk edge to help align GTS trunk panel and protect paint from scratches during install.

Hood trim installed, getting closer every day now!
