I know the car's back with the owner (Paul), so either he'll have to get some pics to Steve to post, or Steve will have to go there and get snapping

Heres the Interior shots front only as the rear has to stay out to replace hydraulic fluid lines before the back seat and panels go in

New carpet, original door panels.... shame about speaker holes, but they will be replaced when better one show up.
They are the original seats and covers in very good shape....but not seen this style before, with the single stripe ?? anyone?
Console fitted but needs replacing as it has some strange patterning on it from a plastic bag or something ?, waiting for a new 71 Tuff steering wheel on route. wheel in picture will be for sale with original DODGE centre cap from Challenger
looking better now, Paul tries out the driving position

That's more like it Steve...can't believe those seats are original though, never seen anything like them before.

Started sawing the posts out of the Fury yet?

Dash & gauges look in good nick too - is it original or restored?

Gauges are all original unrestored, Rob this car has nt really been messed with, apart from being taken totally apart at some point in its life....remember we have had this car 11 years too

Ivor, The seats are original, im pretty sure....never seen them before but the car has only 73 K on it.....and they look so right, front and rear....even has Hog rings and stitching that is the same as mine and about as old looking. even the little nicks and one tiny tear in the drivers seat
Its hard to explain, but i would say they are definately original....inspections welcome at the Nats
