70 Challenger Restomod begins

Doing the bodywork on my dash pad this week. It will get a light layer of 1/8" high density foam then the Ferrari Beige leather. Then install it onto the frame and in the car. After that, I will attempt to fire up the 392.

Dash Getting closer, should be finished today! can't wait.Same price as Just Dash and in one week! Of course not OEM Concourse, better looking but understand the purist would not want this. My 70 R/T FC7, no I would not do this to it. However, I did to my 70 Cuda Resto-Mod blue one.

Nice, can you provide details:
- where'd you get the leather
- process for install

Really like eliminating the center speaker, those are useless

The shop is amazing the Owner is Marco...Sew Cal Rods
It is Italian Ferrari leather they get it locally from a supplier in california. They body work the dash then apply a 1/8" layer if high density foam, That way if it ever cracks it will NEVER be visable. Then they do their magic on the upholstry side.... I highly recommend them for sure, They are also doing my door panels, quarter panels, kick panels and lower dash trim pieces.
 
Looking awesome so far. My blue 70 started out as a sleeper build and just kind of got away from me over time.....

I totally understand that. This build was started by my body shop. set unpainted for nearly 12 years in his shop until I rescued it last year in a trade i gave him, A 67 Belvedere II
