What did you do with your ebody/Mopar today?

Anyone hear of these guys? $799 for white vinyl covers for those Viper seats and that includes the rear seat (Neon) which I don`t need so would be even cheaper.

Dreamed about it since I am in Kabul.

Vroom Vroom!
So, this has been an ongoing nut and bolt resto for the last... oh, I dunno.... 28 years.  Finally seeing the light at the end of this long tunnel and I am super excited about seeing this car come together.  I can't wait to finally drive it.  I've actually had numerous dreams about finishing the car. 
   
Painted the dash about two weeks ago.  Saturday, my brother and I installed the dash and got everything hooked back up.  Ammeter bypass done. Voltmeter installed.... 

Next saturday will be the re-awakening and the first start-up since 1992!  I will try to post a video.  I'm trying to get this baby done and drive it to Carlisle this year for the 50th anniversary of the e-body, show it off and enjoy it.  That's my goal.  To finally SHOW a car instead of just looking for all these years.  It's a light green "stripe delete" RT...  gator top car and I have an NOS top for it.

Well it's a freaky 45 degrees here today so I fired up the Challenger for the ( technically) first time this season. Nice to hear that old familiar rumble and smells again! Weather like this makes me think it won't be long now!
Started on the second crank. I wonder if one could relate that to the ground hog seeing its shadow? 4 weeks left of winter?

Wishful thinking    I an in the same boat.

I replaced the inner door handles, lock levers and rear view mirror with repops. Also replaced the lower dash trim that hides the heater box with a better used one that I picked up a couple years ago. The lock levers are a challenge to change. Can't get the screw to start in the new ones. I'm going to have to do a little massaging. I have the Dremel charging.

What lower dash trim hides the heater box?
Got a pic?

[blown motor]

On A/C cars there is a piece of trim on the passenger side that runs below the glove box and ashtray. It's not reproduced and very hard to find a good used one. My old one had two holes in it where a PO attached something and also a small piece broken of the left end. A couple years ago Roadman, God rest him, found me a decent one. I'll get you a picture tomorrow.

@dodj here's some pics with and without. The piece goes right over to the steering column.

Fired up the Gen III hemi in the AAR for the first time this weekend!

Thanks Murray. I never noticed that trim on a Challenger before. Learn something every day on this site

Got my Challenger back from a service today.  They sorted an oil leak from the oil filter housing and welded up around the exhaust box in a couple of places as fumes were getting into the cabin.  Car's good for another year

Yesterday I went and picked up the Dynacorn trunk/floor/frame assembly that Dave at Roseville set me up with.  They want to ship to a business with a dock or there is an additional charge for a lift gate truck.  Had it delivered to a friends business and was easy to move it to the trailer.  Then this after noon the common carrier delivered my quarter skins from the AMD clearance sale.  Credit card took a big hit this month but it will make for a busy summer!
