Nice! I like the dash, and console.
Maybe a matching wood inlay on the console? Lots of hours I can relate

tiny update.... after a few months of no work on the car ,I picked up where I left off... spagetti....
I`ve installed all new wiring from Ron Francis Wiring and wired and installed the dash to stay in there
things left to do; hook up head-, and taillights, wiring for the wipermotor, rear window defogger and stereo. Can`t wait to wrap al wiring in tape and finish this chapter...
Even though I don`t know what the heck I`m doing when it comes to wiring, the installation was with no big issues. I like the quality of the fusebox and wiring itself. Took more time then expected to install though. wiring the enginebay is done best with the engine in there.....

While your wires are still not taped up. Run a big wire to the trunk area. I have a fuse block in my trunk that supplies power to my alarm module, trunk release, power antenna, 1000 watt amp, and a cigarette-lighter\power port for my plug in worklight or 12 vacuum cleaner.

Nice, clean wiring job, Bart! I'm guessing your beer decided to stay off camera this time, right?

door glass went in after cleaning all door internals up. I had to make new plugs for the front rail. The original ones snapped when I removed them from the glass. Also the soft guides were gone so I had to mcGyver a bit to get those like new. The dynamat on the inside of the door sure does work.... I love the sound of the door closing. No rattles ,no sqeeks and no empty barrel sound ,closing like a vault
It`s getting colder again....

Looks great.
I guess you did not have any problems with the dynamat interfering with the window apparatus? I'm considering doing the same but was concerned about clearances.
