    Legendary seat cover won't fit

    Anyone else have trouble installing a fixed rear seat back cover from Legendary for a 1974 Dart Sport? The seat bottom fits like a glove, but the back cover is off quite a bit. I tend to suspect that the cover I received was for a fold-down seat back, not fixed. If you have photos of the...

    When were the football-shaped speakers introduced in B-bodies?

    I know some of you probably have (or had) a B-body car. I asked this question on FBBO a couple of days ago, but no reply so far. I really need to know as soon as possible. The earlier B-body cars used the same dash speaker as our '67 -'76 A-bodies. I need to know if the '70 Coronet uses...

    Plastic armrest bases?

    Didn't armrests of some year models have plastic bases separating them from the door panel? Which ones and do you have pics?

    Where did you get your carpet?

    When building my son Aaron's Dart Sport a few years ago, we bought a pre-molded carpet set during a car show/swap meet in Ennis, Texas. The vendor was "Trim Parts", if I recall correctly, and they were based out of east Texas somewhere. We are now to the point of needing carpet to complete the...

    I've been a busy boy this weekend

    I finally got a chance to try my hand at replacing the seat covers in Aaron's Duster. He bought a complete set from Legendary, and I must say the quality is excellent and the fit is perfect (so far). I was able to borrow hog ring pliers for the weekend from a buddy. I got the rear seat...

    Something doesn't look right

    Anyone here familiar with upholstery in our A-bodies? Aaron and I pulled his back seat cover off and mocked-up the one from his Legendary Auto Interiors kit he recently bought. Take a look at these pics and tell me if you know this is correct or not: Notice how the jute fabric is...

    Journey to the center of the dash

    Many of you have asked how to remove a dash pad. Well, wonder no more... Aaron and I did it this weekend, for our third time, so I thought I would show a few pics that might help. This is a view along the underside of the dash. You can easily see the studs with 3/8" speed nuts which must...

    What were the differences in dash speakers?

    Some of you are aware that I make and sell a bracket for mounting twin 3-1/2" speakers under the dash to replace the old style single-cone. This isn't a sales pitch here (see "CAR PARTS FOR SALE" for that). What I am finding to be the case is that there apparently were different sizes of...

    Thought I would finally show the interior

    After all this time, I finally got a couple decent pictures of the interior of Aaron's Dart Sport we rebuilt. All of the upholstery was done by a local shop, and I provided the artwork of the "DART SPORT" emblems for the computerized stitching in the headrests. You may not be able to make...

    Seat belt questions

    We finally installed the seat belts I rounded up for my son's '74 Dart Sport. They came from a bench seat car and his has a bench seat. There seems to be something wrong with the way the passenger-side retractable shoulder belt reels out when you buckle up. The belt bunches up in the corner...

    To dye or not to dye, that is the question.

    I've read posts from various web boards with conflicting information. So, let's see what you guys have to say. Aaron's Dart Sport has a sun-faded shoulder harness on the passenger side. All the other belts are nice and black. Plan A --- I thought about using RIT fabric dye to darken it up a...

    Tracking down coat hooks

    Anyone have a part number for BLACK coat hooks for my '74 Dart Sport? I have a number, but it's for beige. They are still available from my dealer, but I don't know about black ones, until I get him the correct number. Darn these computerized parts departments. Thanks, Jerry
