73 duster restro mod

Cool ! I'll be watching this space.

Btw, about the firewall ; did you cut out the original piece and weld in flat steel, and what are your plans for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning ? Vintage Air ? I'm happy with my Vintage Air system.

The front seats may work, but remember the driveshaft & transmission tunnel of the A-body is offset slightly to the right, so there's less room for the right-side seat. From your pictures it seems the rear seat you've selected won't work. If I may be so bold as to suggest you widen the rear wheel wells now (for 10.5" wheels, but this also requires a switch away from cart-springs) and rework the original rear seat frame and have it professionally recovered to match the fronts ? This is what I did.


For the firewall, I cut out original opening and replaced with 18 gauge flat stock..for air I will be using the vintage air system and will be running rear ducts through the console..

Once I get to the trunk metal work, I will be adding mini tubs..I don't plan on using leaf springs, I will be using RMS rear coil covers for the suspension..

The rear seat is just set in the car now for storage..there is about 4" on each side of seat that I will be building armrest to cover the space..armrest area will have cup holders and USB ports built into them..the seats all match now, made sure I got a complete interior from the donor car..
