Interior work today

67 newport

Finished coating the floors with chassis saver. Added siless sound deadening…carpet padding…and new carpet…and replaced the torn up 68 seats with much better 67 seats. My hands are killing me but I love how it looks. Can’t wait to redo the upholstery for all of it.

New mirror

I feel much better with a passenger mirror on a car this big with this many blind spots…even if its just a bit of view. Better than nothing. I found a NOS still in the box from mopar right mirror to match my left remote. Finally got time to install it today.
