1963 Dart 170 2 Door Post Resto
So, finally finished the trailer project with the wife and starting to get back at the dart. Got the sound deadener on the floor finished and all seams taped. Got the firewall insulation installed (discovered that there was 2 holes, one in each panel that were not drilled. It was a pain measuring and marking to drill them right but came out pretty good). Installed the passenger heater box. got the final cables run through the firewall and preparing to install the wiper linkages.
Then finally can install the dash. After that I will put in the drivers vent box. From what I remember it will be easier this way as with it out I can access the shifter cables better to attach and reinstall them on the push button assembly.
One question I have is that there was a fabric type material at each point where the dash bolted to the lower window frame. I'm assuming it it to keep it from rattling and squeaking. Does anyone know what the material is or a good substitute? I was considering using something like hockey tape, the material type. Would this be good or does anyone have a better suggestion? Thanks.
More pictures soon.
