    Custom instrument panel face?

    I've been toying with the idea of making a custom instrument panel face, but I want it to look like it came from the factory. The panel in my 68 Chryslers use a combination of marks painted onto the black metal back panel and letters that are etched/engraved into the clear front cover. The...

    Satin or Gloss on interior panels?

    I'm refinishing the door panels in the 68 convertable which has pearl white interior. I'm using SEM Sailcloth white as the base color and Herb's interior paint for the pearl effect which gives me good results. Since white interior is so hard to keep clean, I'd like to put a durable clear coat...

    Trunk carpet availability

    Does anyone know of any vendors selling trunk carpeting? I find the rubber pads everywhere, but IMO they trap moisture and cause rust so I'd rather carpeting in our 300's. (The New Yorker had carpeting from the factory). I've checked many sites however and can't seem to find any. I'm...

    Removing the rear defogger motor in 68 300

    Our 68 300 has the factory rear defogger, which is neat and all, but as some of you probably already know, they weirdly mounted the motor in the passenger-side speaker opening. I'd like to put a set of 6x9's and a bluetooth head unit in the car so want to move the motor. However, it looks like...

    How to remove rear armrests on 68 300 convertable

    I'd like to remove the armrests from the side panels so I can refinish them. I have the panels out of the car, but it appears that the padding has to be removed to access the screws that are holding them to the panel. But I can't determine how to remove the pads. Are they just glued on or are...

    Got the 300's rear seat back from the upholster

    Still waiting on the front ones to be finished (very soon I hope) but I was so excited to get these back after 3 months I had to post a pic. Came out pretty nice I think. Oh, and the center console is done too. The rubbery covers that go on the center console pivot frame were pretty ugly so I...

    Did the 68 300 convertable get multiple rear speakers when equiped w/ the stereo radio?

    Just wondering where the factory put them, if in fact they did at all. Or did they just stick with the single rear speaker even when the radio had stereo output?

    How to smooth out wrinkles in door panel vinyl

    I made a new door panel backer for my 68 New Yorker and I'd like to to put the original vinyl onto it. It has no cracks or tears but there wrinkles on each end of it. I have to be careful with it because it it does not feel super soft and pliable. It feel like too much manipulation will cause...

    Can someone tell me what this part is called?

    The ones on the 300 are frayed and I'd like to replace them. If you want to suggest a vendor to buy them from I'd take that info too :D
