Thanks to many of you with your information, I think the Cuda is almost done. The Engine bay is about done, I am not going to paint the cowl black as it is a major undertaking. The new interior is in and the trunk has been cleaned up and looks pretty good. I did find out that the interior of this car is correct , and it is a H6BW (blue and white to tone) but not originally ordered with a rallye dash (option is not on fender tag), so the black column is the correct color. The cars with the rallye package had the columns painted the interior color " Thanks Cody for the examples it lead me to investigate". This cuda came original as you see it but with a standard black cluster. :faint:  I am going to keep it rallye....I like it better.......

I think the rattle that I cannot find is sound coming up the stearing column...I think the bearings are shot so that job is next.....

If I had an all B5 blue interior, I'd change the seats/panels to look like this as I think it's way better lookin'.

Even though not 100% correct, I would paint the column blue.

 :wow:  Amazing amazing interior colors!!!  Very tastefully done.  I agree on the blue column too.  Looks kinda out of place.  That's just being nit-picky though, the whole thing looks astonishing.

You know I am going to have to Column out to rebuild it anyway so I think I will paint it to match...That way it would be as if it was ordered with a rallye package.......
