Based in the UK and looking to replace the interior on my 73 Roadrunner, the old blue set is worn and tatty. Looking to get the seats lined but are there any places in the US where I can source parts like door cards etc

Hi. I've sold a lot of parts to guys in Europe, and you also have to deal with sky-high shipping costs, customs, etc. What I usually do for them is ship their parts to a regional exporter, who then combines their parts with other shipments and that brings down the costs.
Are you looking to do a full restoration or just get your car looking good? There are often nice sets of used panels for sale on ebay, but most of them are black, blue, or green. If you want white, gold, etc., you'll likely have to buy new ones.

Great Ino, thank you
My car has a light blue interior and I want it all changed to black, it'll never be a car for the purists so the changeneral in original colour doesn't concern me
Just found a gent who imports Co trainers into the UK every mo the or so, so will use him for shipping
Thanks guys

Yeah just looking good, mechanically the car is superb, with built engine tranny etc. The exterior paint is very pattinered but solid as a rock (I love the look) but interior is not great at all

How bad is the interior? If it's just faded and a little scratched up, I would paint it since you're wanting to go to black. Put a good coat of primer on the plastic panels, and then spray a semi-glass black over top. I did that to several panels on my car and they still look like new three years later.
You'll still need to replace the seat covers, carpet, and headliner, but the hard plastic parts I would paint unless they're broken or totally trashed.

I have both front and rear upper door panels that are blue. These come from a 1973 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus with the deluxe interior. These are in good shape with some small defects. I also have the plastic sail panels (blue) in real nice shape.
Cheers charger, I want to go black interior but thanos for the offer
Bruzilla, not much is any good to be honest, the small bits look to be in decent shape but all seats are shot to bits, and the door cards are trashed. Like you say, I'll spray what I can though

So I bought 2 x 72 challenger black leather seats today, in near mint condition. Quite a find tbh and I got a fairly good deal as they seem quite rare
The carpet is brand new so I'm just going to dye that. It also turns out that bar the door cards, the rest of the trim will probably be fine to be sprayer

Hi, I would be interested in the door panels and especially the sail panels. What are you asking for them and shipping to the St. Louis Missouri area? Thanks.
