My second 1965 Dodge Dart.

Google firewall insulation pad 1965 Dart. They are available from different vendor's. They have it for AC cars, and non AC cars. Should be about $40 for non AC cars.

Do you mean buy firewall insulation and rip off the insulation, and cut a piece of a card board and use for the heater box ?

By the way, the cardboard is supposed to be 1/16 inch thick.
