    B-Body Pillar Post Molding

    Windshield garnish mldg: remove screws at ends, loosen inboard screws, allow mldg to drop. If you need it completely removed, no problem, won't affect headliner. Lining up screws is mldg is removed is easy if locations are marked with masking tape or an awl is used to locate 1st hole. Side...

    Help identifying a trim group

    Decor Group for a Road Runner, standard trim for Satellite. H2X interior code, and if I recall correctly, A87 is the code for '69 RR Decor Group.

    Legendary Upholstery

    Back in the days before ArmorAll, we used Lemon Pledge - it did make the vinyl a bit more slippery. I've used ArmorAll without having any problems, but haven't bothered with it for several years. For years, I've just used a damp towel & a dry towel on vinyl. It's been years since my last white...

    65 Interior Color For Dash, Column and Carpet

    Go to hamtramck_historical.com and look up the color & trim guides. Dashes had a "suede" finish on top, and a gloss finish on the lower face, as did the columns in that era. Not necessarily exterior color, though. Generally a different code and name. You can find color charts on Ebay for that...

    Gas pedal position

    It's kind of working backwards, but the base sits at the inner forward corner of the carpet heel pad. Cutting the rectangular hole for the pedal base is an SOB.

    62 Plymouth Dash Cluster

    I believe the center area is silver & painted. What's the backside look like ?

    Dash Ash Tray Differences?

    Yup, slider was early production - since Super Bees were mid-year, I would think they'd have the tilt-out ashtray. But it's entirely possible some got sliders. Which begs the question: did any SBs get Inland shifters, like the other early B-body cars?

    Interior panels touch up

    I've used the OER stuff, on vinyl and on plastic, but sprayed it from the rattle can - not sure how well it would work using a brush. The colors I used were spot on; I used a wax & grease remover and their adhesion promoter, and the paint has held up fine. I've heard good things about Herb's...

    Steering Wheel Styles 1969

    Hamtramck_Historical has option, color, trim, bulletins, etc etc - highly recommended. Should be a low-gloss plating on the ring, but a 3-spoke pad IIRC - my steering wheels since the late '90s are/were either woodgrain or base model - but it looks like that one may be a corroded '66-'67...can't...

    Dash color question for smarter than me people.

    Typically the dash frame & pad match the darkest interior hue; clues will be windshield reveal moldings, defroster vents, package tray, and seat belts on most Mopars. Interior codes like "B7" refer to the overall scheme, rather than dash color: pre-71, generally the interior doorframe color...

    Where do the front seatbelts go?

    For bench or buddy-seat fronts, double seat belts on left side - front & rear - single on right.

    1968 GTX interior seat color S6N

    Yup, top is bolsters, 2nd is accent, 3rd is inserts ("stripes" on GTX/Sport Satellite). So, your bottom photo is correct, and the gold bolsters should not be darker - as they are with green and red seats - let alone black. Funny thing is, I didn't recall the blue seats being nearly all the same...

    1968 GTX interior seat color S6N

    Check out the color & trim guides at the Hamtramck_Historical site. All the '68 GTX/Sport sat bucket interiors I can recall - since the cars were new - had darker bolsters & lighter inserts. But I can't recall a black & gold combo. I've seen a few repro covers that had the dark/light either...

    Build sheet/carpet color?

    Check out the color & trim guides at the Hamtramck Historical site, Barry may have that info there. Generally Mopars had darker colors for carpets until around the mid-70s. That interior looks gold on my monitor, oddly enough. Base of the gas pedal should be at the forward inner corner of the...

    What Replacement Upholstery Fits 65 Dodge Coronet 440 Convertible Seats?

    The H4R will be more of a burgundy than red - it was on the '65 Coronet I owned decades ago. Convertible interior will probably differ from 2-door HT & sedan only in rear seat width and rear quarter interior trim.

    Classic Industries Center Dash Trim fitment problem - 1970 B Body Mopar Ralley Dash

    In the lower photo, looks like the left one doesn't fit well either. I haven't any experience with those specific parts, but I've seen the earlier-year (1-piece padded) repros, and they have a gap at the arch, where the originals fit better. I've had the fit issues Pnora mentions on the...

    66 plymouth wagon carpet or vinyl?

    The rubber-mat car I owned (base-trim '68 Road Runner) had jute under the mat; original/unrestored/unmodified car.

    66 plymouth wagon carpet or vinyl?

    Mats held in same as carpet: sill plates at the sides, gravity & seat belts elsewhere. 4-doors are same as wagons in the passenger area.

    66 plymouth wagon carpet or vinyl?

    Need more info, and a photo of the vinyl would help. Base models could have a molded rubber/vinyl "carpet"; it's a pebble grain. Rear area - load floor & backside of 2nd seat - had a ribbed vinyl; no backing, glued to the panels. Correct rear stuff is impossible to find; ACC supposedly has the...
