Looking good! I love the dash and how you incorporated it.
I know you’re frustration your door cards looked really good. For what it’s worth if your going to recover the seats anyway unless your doing it yourself I’d cut the seats down.
That’s the route I took with mine seats as full custom , the bolster along the side has lots to work with. Just a thought. And also check the room along the “B” panel with the seats in I had to cut down along the headrest side to allow it to fit and slide.
One of the things to look out for as well on the windows , after doing all the mods make sure you put everything together on the door including the whiskers and door rubbers and close and lower the glass with the doors closed. I found everything ran fine with it open but ran slow closed.
Stay at it 😁

Thanx for checking in, Wayne, and thanx for the heads up. I did build the door up and found that the window hit the speaker baffles. A few mods later and it was clear. It does run slow (always did). I know there was a "fix" for that at one time. I'll need to look it up.

Making slow but steady progress on the door card.
After lots of sanding, bondo, sanding, primer, sanding, more filler, sanding, primer, sanding, spot filler, primer, sanding, primer, the first color coat went on.
Then more color.
After playing in GIMP for a while, I think I'm going with the pull and bottom cup holder in napa red, and the door latch in black. The middle insert will be black suede.
Starting to wind down for season, but there's a lot to do yet.
