Moving along with the interior. I was able to get the correct interior pant from Herb's Parts for the trim and resprayed all the surround moldings with the right 1970 white interior color.
I gotta say that the reproduction door and rear panels are EXACT fit to the original pieces. I got them from Roseville Moparts. Who'dathunkit possible that you could install a repro interior panel and have the screw holes match perfectly with the existing holes in the door frame and inner bulkhead? Inconceivable! The only modification you have to do is drill the holes for the 'cuda emblem and the remote mirror stalk. But the spots are premarked on the back side of the panels so it was really easy.
I also started cleaning up the seat belts and shoulder harnesses by soaking them in evaporust overnight. It did work great. All the grunge came out and the date labels are a little easier to see thought still rather yellowed with half a century of age. But they'll do.
