Here is the 4 point set up I put together out of two 3 point belts for each seat. Andrew

I thought I would update yall, before I start on the cage, it occurred to me that fabbing the head liner would be easier without the cage in the way. The white material is called High Impact Poly Styrene, and is the same plastic Styrofoam is made out of. It is heat formable and epoxy sticks to...

OK, heres the rough in of the console. You have the shifter, then the PIN pad and the avionics switch module. As much as it is a cruiser, a spot for two cup holders. Then on the angled face you have a two way radio, above that a 2DIN spot for the AM/FM CD player, and to the left of that the...

Here is the next step for the digital equipment. A PIN pad that accepts an eight digit PIN. This is also the start of the center console. http://www.youtube.com/user/TheBluemissile?feature=mhum Andrew

Here is the start of the dash for the Missile. I am still waiting for the return of three of the gauges I sent back for re-labeling, and the air/fuel gauge which is being worked on. This is try number two for re-labeling. I still have to make the turn signals and the two indicators for the laser...

I need someone with a 73-76 Duster to measure the distance from the roof sheetmetal or headliner, which ever you have to the surface you sit on. I would prefer a stock bucket seat, but a bench will work. Every time I get in my car it seems Im sitting way to low compared to a stock seat. Now is...

I have started the composite work again and here are the first results. Everything still needs to be sanded down for a 'gloss' coat and a final coat of automotive clear, the handles still need a second layer of carbon. I think however the scheme is starting to take shape. the first couple of...

I got the shop turned back around to wood working, so the rear console was first. Because I have gone to alot of trouble to insulate the trunk from the passengers compartment, sticking any sort of speakers back there makes no sense. Come to think of it sticking speakers back there never made any...

Here are the shots of the metal sail panels and their transformation from the 72 to 73 set up. I have ordered some appropriate Epoxy and will vacuum bag them when it arrives. Andrew

I have been mulling this one over for a year or so. Would I really need to put seats in the back,would there ever be anybody riding there? The addition of rear seats REALLY complicates the roll cage issue. Safety being a top concern, they would have to have three point belts at least. Then there...

I got a pair of racing buckets / custom mounts from a member here and they were in great condition. I put the front right hand bolt in the drivers seat mount and marked the the left front bolt location. pulled the seat out of the way and drilled the hole. And shazam I hit the existing hole on...

OK I finally got the cable that allows me to download pics from my phone so here is the start. Part of the plan for the car is to run an electronic 5 speed auto with a paddle shifter. The after market paddles are expensive and look bulky. My brother in law said he had a Mazda with a paddle...

Ok guys and gals, my interchange book says that my dash insert will only fit in 1973 Dusters, Demons, Darts and Valiants. I know thats a crock, what other years and models will it fit? Andrew

I am currently talking to a major Digital gauge manufacturer about making fully gauged dash inserts for MoPars. We will start with A bodies of course. Other than a Speedometer, a Tach, Fuel Level, Voltage, Oil pressure. What gauges would you like included in the group? Andrew

I have seen a few metal sail panels for dusters that look like they would work on a 73, but they say 70-72 only. What changed??? Andrew

I thought I wouild show you guys where I'm going with the dash to get some feedback. There will be a shift light and radar display as a heads up display at eye level as well. Andrew

Here is the next step at the back of the cockpit. Addressing the issue of safety: When I did the minitub I also set it up for a rear firewall composed of two sheets of metal with 3M 'Firestop" insulation between them. After I raise the tranny/ driveshaft tunnel, I will replace all the temp...

I went searching for a topic that has come up many times and could not find the appropiate thread to respond to so I started this one. The question has been asked; is there any way to remove the dash and leave the front windshield in place? The resounding answer has been NO! In the imortal...

I know its been a while since you guys have heard from me but work has been all consuming. Here are the pics from the rear side panels I fabricated over the past few days. Same proceedure as the test panel. I will be making the door panels as soon as I purchase the speakers. I have the ply...

Does anybody know where I can get some of these clip retainers? They were originally on the package tray. Thanks Andrew

My next project will be putting together the interior panels which would be the door and rear side panels. I may also do the sail panels in a similar fashon. I wanted to give the panels an upolstered look with an eye twoard the original design of the panels. I put together a test panel of 1/4"...

Here is the step by step on the dashpad. I thought about buying a new one but this was just too easy. 1.I first took off the vynal and was going to bag carbon on the rubber foam but it had dissintegrated too badly so I removed it from the steel core. 2.I shaped an extruded foam piece to...

There was some interest in carbon fiber composites in this catagory. I actually had two consecutive days off to work on this, so I thought you guys might be interested. I know making a package tray is a basic deal, but this one has a built in full width third brake light. First I took the...

Does any body know where to get new repo A pillar trim for a 73 duster? And what is the name of the piece that goes above the door panels and clips around the top of the door over the panel and where do I get a pair? Thanks Andrew
