The Brick, 1972 Dodge Dart Custom
Okay, got the seats in, rears are a bit different. Will have to custom fab the rear seatbelt brackets, but it looks great.
Here is the front seat. Gained about 3 or 4 inches of leg room and lost a center arm rest. Really comfy though
The back seat really fills the area up, but the bottom seat will need fabricated risers to make them really secure. Will also need to refab some seat belt brackets, as the old belts don't fit in the old locations, and I will be looking for alternatives to the current setup.
Drivers side Dash setup. Nice Grant wheel with Mopar horn button the wife got me for christmas, a SunPro Super Tach on the A pillar. Dash refurn coming soon....really soon.
Passenger side Dash setup. I mounted a dual 12v accessory pod, but I am going to move it to the right side of the gauges. I hooked the power to the old cigarette lighter power and had to hook the new 12v pod to a switch. For now, it works.
Here is the Oil Pressure and Water Temp gauge install I did a few weeks ago. Drop the AC vents, take the stereo loose and drop the ashtray / cigar lighter mount out. Wired the lights on the gauges to the light wire from the ashtray, and used the factory holes for the gauge panel. Went with the 2 single panels since I could not find a 2 gauge pod anywhere local. Ran the lines for the gauges through a hole popped into the firewall below the AC setup, ran a grommet and then filled the grommet with expanding foam. It turned out pretty clean. I did this on my Duster years ago and I like the fact that they are right there.
Christmas in March - Floor shifter, shift kit, and new glove box liner. I have tons of little stuff done. Within the next 2 weeks - interior refurb and stereo system!
