I attempted heater box rebuild today and SOB I am missing a flap door,  I took the heater box apart and kept all the parts together so I am stumped.

Anybody have some parts:

[Rbob]

Looked at a pic prior to disassembly and the door was not there: 

[Rbob]

Thank you @Floyd you made my week.


@anlauto Next question why is there tape on under glove box stopper?

Should I omit or put it on?

[anlauto]

That type of tape certainly looks like the type they used back then...I have no clue why it might be there, never seen that before.

It's totally your choice...you have a "before" picture to prove it's existence 

[RUNCHARGER]

I remember my FM3 Challenger having a piece of tape like that there. Perhaps a part # label that got torn off?

[Rbob]

I see no reason for the tape there so I will leave it off. 

Installing Roof rail molding and seal retainer, there is 2 types of seals in roll form, which one goes where?

I took the car apart 40 years ago, I cant believe I am missing some screws...   oval head phillips #8-18 x .68 length.  MMC assembly manual says 14 screws but there are only 10 holes on the stainless trim.

I have a mystery piece, bag was marked quarter interior trim brackets.  Any ideas?

The trim piece goes where you show it in the last pic. The rear interior trim panel screws to that bracket.
Can't help you on the seals. It's been to long since I did mine and had to ask back then myself. Hopefully someone will chime in that knows for sure.

[anlauto]

First up, the seals.
1. I glue this open cell black foam along the inside of the roof rail
2. Then I install the drip rail moldings over this foam
3, Then this sticky closed cell foam applies to the outside of the weather-strip channel
4. Then install the weather-strip channel

[anlauto]

Your mystery bracket supports the rear interior panel up by the rear quarter window, there's two holes, one for the tab and one for the screw

[Rbob]

OMG, I was looking for 2 holes ...



Than once again @anlauto

Nice catch!  I missed the tab!

[anlauto]

Is it two holes or just one slot ? My memory is not always that good, sorry..

[Rbob]

One slot, clip slides in from the window side and screw fits above it.

Roof rail moldings and weatherstrip channel is installed.

I want to install the side headliner trim moldings and A-pillar plastic, will that impede the dash install?

pics:

[anlauto]

YES...."A" pillar trim is AFTER dash 100%

[Rbob]

Installed trunk weatherstrip, trunk and both doors while waiting for some heater box parts.  Slow progress but its progress, been busy at work.

Made a stand for the dash frame, dash is supposed to be end of month.  On edit, almost forgot to post, I did paint the steering column, dash parts and interior back-glass and windshield header molding
