It's a popular thing to do. Early super stock cars did this, search for A-100 seats. They usually ditch the stock brackets and use a one piece aluminum bracket with hole drilled all through it. You can find repops on ebay and other places.

Ya, I'm sorry. I do have to admit 4mulaSvaliant, your dash pad does look amazing!

It's all a waste of time. For $70 you can get a plastic cover that looks like the real deal, they're great! They just go right over the old cracked dash and until you press on it, they look like a padded dash. Seriously, $70 and you're good to go. This place has them, or try ebay...

I'd like to see the rest of the car. Just because the car might have some damage or repairs, don't give up on it yet. It's a 30+ year old car....they go through a lot in 30 or 40 years. Most cars, unless you're lucky to have a cream puff, have some repairs and damage or rust or whatever to...

That's seam sealer, it looks like. Is that crack over the hump in the metal too, or just in the seam sealer?

I installed belts in the back of my Barracuda, just old style lap belts. I secured the baby seat base with that. No need for a tether, but you can add that if you want. I read the instructions on the seat and it said the tether was optional. I know the new baby can seem rather delicate...

My friend and I made our own headliner for a '73 Dart Sport from Centra plastic. It's a plastic sheet used in signmaking, comes in 1/8" thickness or a little thicker. Seems to me we had the thicker stuff and wished we had the thinner stuff. We used the cardboard as a template and made the new...

If you can remove the lens, some Novus plexi polish would make it look brand new! You can have those things converted to modern electronics ya know, that's what I plan to do with my AM radio.

There's a '68 Barracuda fastback here where I live with rear fold down seat DELETE. His rear seat is fixed. No carpet in the back either, just some strange cardboard type stuff. It's original, I've seen it. I have some photos somewhere..

I like the fish a lot more than the 'cuda. I've never liked 'cuda on an early A-body barracuda.

That's awesome Sweatybetty! So you glued it along the back window at the top, right where it hooks into those hooks? Or did you glue it just before the hooks on that flat piece of metal back there? I had a guy do my headliner a few years ago with the glass in, but I'm convinced you can't it...

There was a carpet delete option, there's a '67 here in town with that. It's got this black cardboard/tar paper stuff back there. He's also got fold down seat delete....yup, the rear seat does not fold down. It's fixed.

You can dye them black with fabric dye.

These guys sell a plastic replacement headliner, check it out. http://www.dantesparts.com/

They're great! Bought one from www.moparsbycrane.com and it showed up slightly damaged. I emailed them with a photo and they sent a new one right away! The damaged one was put on a car for sale and we kept the good one for the Deviant project. I highly recommend the cap and the seller...

I started a similar thread once, here it is.... http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=18641&highlight=white+interior+photos

You guys with white cars, what colors did you paint underneath your car? Got any photos of underneath?

Can someone out there please show a close up photo of these drains, where they are located and what they look like? My '69 (well it's not mine technically any more) had bad rust that we fixed, but we didn't add any drains..oops. thanks. Neil.

Cowl leaking maybe? Read this discussion http://www.earlyabodyforum.com/board/messages/2/2738.html

Depends what kinda horn it is. Most seem to push down then rotate counter clockwise. My '69 Valiant with the deluxe half horn ring, you have to gently pry the center emblem out, the remove the horn pad with a socket, then the horn ring with a screwdriver.

Yeah, they're great! Thanks guys. All the photos are definitely giving me ideas. I like the one I posted first, but I think a white dash on top will reflect the sun back into the windshield too much. Black might look alright afterall. The door tops definitely will have to be body colour...

What creates more glare on the inside of the windshield from the dash, white paint or black paint? (I'm referring to the paint on the top of the dash, not the dash pad)

Yeah, that's cool. I'm starting to see that the photo I posted is actually very cool looking! Do you think a white dash will show dust more than a black dash?

I need help deciding what colours to paint the interior of my '69 Valiant! I'm converting from green to black, the exterior of the car will be the original white. Should the dash be white with a black dash pad? White upper door with black door panel, or black upper door with white panel? I...

I went to Automotive Restoration Specialists (here in Canada....they just import everything) and her headliner was almost $200 and she guaranteed a material/colour match. I said to myself "screw that, I'll get one on ebay" and it's the same material but slightly darker colour red...but who can...

You can get them new on feebay for about $60. If you want to remove and/or install it properly, remove the windshield and rear window, and all the trim along the sides.

These guys make one http://dantesparts.com/abodymolded.html My buddy and I made our own from Cintra (Centra?), a plastic sign making material. We traced out the old cardboard one and cut the plastic to the right size, then covered it with modern headliner fabric.

The old van seats were lightweight. Is that burgundy seat? I have a set of van seats, (not in my car, just hanging around in my garage) they are so lightweight it's amazing. I think the frames are tubular aluminum or tubular chromoly or whatever. The old superstockers used aluminum seat...

Yes, I bought one, it's great! In fact, it showed up with the box badly beat up and a small crease in the pad cap. I emailed them with photos and they sent a new one right away with no hassle. It came from these guys http://moparsbycrane.com/page/ngtm/Catalog.html

I redid my own once, it's easy to fix the cracks (PC7 or plumbers epoxy, then Dremel it down and sand by hand) but the finish coat is what's important. I used a Marine urethane sprayed on but it got sticky in the sun and I had to change my wheel eventually. I'll have to redo it with some other...
