Had a couple hours this week to work on the inside a little bit. I started removing the AC controls and radio. As I was getting ready to pull out the radio, I noticed it was hard wired to the aftermarket gauges underneath the dash with a bunch of 2-to-1 connectors. So, I left it in there for now until I strip the dash a little more and plan where I want to put the radio, speakers, and possibly amplifier.
My next step is to remove the dash pad. Depending on how it comes out and how much damage there is, I have a couple ideas of how to either restore the dash pad or I'll make an entirely new one. I also got something online for 40% for Black Friday that should really make the dash unique! It should arrive in the mail in about a week or so.
Hopefully I'll have some time to work on the Dart before Christmas.
