I set mine so they contact the padding on the roof (ceiling) so they don't move while the car is running. Would kinda suck if I did all that work and they rattled. And mine is a '72 so it didn't have all the holes in the edges-only the two sets at the back. I assumed the idea was to have each...

I just did mine in my '72 Duster last weekend. I picked up a Walnut Hollow hot knife on ebay-it's a glorified soldering iron with screw in #11 xacto blades. Doesn't look like much and I was expecting to be disappointed but on the contrary, I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't want to just cut...

I would double nut them and back it out with the inside nut.

Dynamat and spray-on bed liner? Sounds heavy. And not in a Marty McFly/Doc Brown sorta way. When I did mine I painted all the structural parts (frame rails, etc.) and undercoated the sheet metal. Overspray was had but it's a black car so I didn't have a problem with that.

I went with TTIs because the 340 I finally got didn't come with exhaust manifolds at all. My choice was paying a small fortune for stock 340 manifolds or paying a small fortune for shorty headers.

1970-71 Dusters and 1971 Demons had the option for the "Rallye" dash seen in 1967-69 Barracudas. Discontinued for 1972. Photo is my '72 Duster with a Rallye dash, just because I like it better:

I cut the channel back about an inch from the end of the bow and I still had to cut it more on some of them while putting it in, so be prepared for that.

Mine's a 5 hp 20 gallon roll-around that does the job.

Hit a milestone moment on this yesterday (Tuesday) and that's justification enough for an update on The Progress So Far: Been working pretty steady on lil' Taz when I have the time and while most of it hasn't been photo worthy plenty got done. One of the biggies was replacing the lower control...

Bumped for an update-mine showed up Monday the 11th, just shy of 2 months earlier than anticipated.

That cardboard isn't (or shouldn't be) glued down solid-a part of it is not. The end of the clip slides under the area that is not glued. (edit) To pile on: The cardboard glued to the back of the sail should be a sort of ring shape. The clip goes in the hole in the 'ring' and under it where it...

Had the same issue with mine when I replaced them around 2000. I used a chisel and carefully hammered the line into the panel one half inch at a time. Time consuming but it did the job.
