Silver w/ black- different!

Normally, all black would be my choice,.....but Butch says it gets to 110 degrees in Tulare, so I lightened it up with silver, If I could have got affordable silver seat covers, likely have them too.

I experimented with charcoal and grey Duplicolor vinyl and fabric coating....amazing product and strongly considered for this hot rod, just could not get myself to useing it on these freshly upholstered seats.

What kind of headliner did you got with? What are your thought on how it worked for you? thanks.

it was a plastic / ABS aftermarket (normally 73 and up) that was in the Duster. Was a light brown butterscotch so it got painted with the rest of the interior pieces. We put gloss on the metal except the dash in front of the pad (to cut glare) and matt finished all the plastic.

really wish someone would re-pop the cardboard....but the plastic / ABS liners are way better than 50 year old cardboard.

I like the bumpers, especially the front....tight. A simple slotting of the brackets does the trick.

 

[JDMopar]

Are those rechromed, or AMD's? They look nice.

 

[HemiDenny]

both bumpers were on the car when I bought it. The front looks fairly fresh and is a keeper, but after I cleaned the rear bumper..... it looked tired compared to the rest of the car, so I ordered a AMD piece form Summit / Atech.

Pure sex right there! Beautiful, keep us posted. I am about to finally get mine on road. I will send you pix from yet another super satisfied customer.

Denny, did you see my Duster? It's different. Search," 1980's Tribute Plymouth Duster." on You tube. Have to shore up a few Details

 

[RustyRatRod]

Is that car pink or is it the lighting?

 

[JDMopar]

Pretty sure it's called Poppy Red. Car was just WAY too fast, so they poured Ford paint on it to slow it down a few clicks!

it is almost bright orange. I often have to tilt my laptop screen to see the actual color

It looks like you tightened up the rear bumper like you did on the front. Am I right?

 

[HemiDenny]

no, right out of the AMD box and on the car with the unmodified original (powder coated) brackets. It fit extremely well, I was pleasantly surprised

Nice, I actually got my rear bumper from AMD also for my Scamp and am very happy with it too! Super nice build, I'm watching it closely. Steve

It does look like '65 Mustang Poppy red. Looks great!

buckets and seat belts.

 

[TF360]

I really like the grey(silver) carpet. What a nice contrast!

Seats look like '71. Not to gripe, they're my favorite.
