More pics of the dash and interior kits
 

We need more detailed pics of the dash and interior kits installed in cars. Anybody got them?

No problem...

Here are a few shots of the dash and interior from both our display car and a recent customer car.

Hope this helps. PM, call or email me if you have any questions on anything.

That is just plain nice. Bad A$$

I think I'm gonna get sick...................:thumbsup:

Wow very nice!

wow awesome :hail:

Center Console?
 

The dash is gorgeous! What about that center console, is it an available item? I didn't see it listed on the Marquez home page...

Thanks!
The center console is a standard 2nd gen unit which we provide as part of either the dash and door kit, or the full interior package.
The one you see in the pictures with the tan interior was modified by us prior to upholstery.

Chris

:thumbsup: Excellent! Just what I wanted to hear!

Dash Kit
 

Anyone know what seats those are in the convertible?

They are the Recaro 'Ergomed' style

Chris

phenomenal work!!

This looks awesome!!
Did you cut out the defrosting vents or am I missing them in the pics?

The dashes you see in the pictures do not have the defrost vents.
They were some of the very fist ones we made. We have since modified the plugs for our current production parts to have a provision for the defrost vents in the factory location.

Chris

Chris, awesome stuff, well thought out and executed, congrats, hope you sell a ton of them

Chris, did you every find or make a billett insert for the defroster vents?

What is that dash top/panel setup? Looks like a good combo for aftermarket gauges.

Mark

I think overall that the gauges need to be stepped up a bit, tired of seeing the same thing.

Awesome work guys...looks great!!!!!

what is a round about figure on complete interior?i have ~10k in my interior and its nowhere near this quality.

i talked with the guy that owns the vert at Columbus and he said he had north of $30k in the interior.

ok,thet makes me feel somewhat better.thats part of the difference between a 50k car and a 200k car.it all adds up.the interior in those pics is nothing less than amazing i.m.o.

Like Mike pointed out, once you get our foundation of the interior kit , you can go as basic or as elaborate as your budget or imagination lets you.

well,i THOUGHT mine was nice and i THOUGHT i have seen some nice interior but that is unreal design and craftsmanship.

pics are nice, it is even nicer in person

That is a nice look,Good design

thanks for the compliments guys!

No harm intended, but when are you guys gonna update your website.:question:

What would you like to see?

(no harm taken!)

Well, I have a 72 Chevelle and when I click on interior to see your new Chevelle door panels nothing comes up. It's been that way for a while now.:thumbsup: Very interested in the product so that's why I'm asking.:lateral:

It has always been our intention to get production panels out for the Chevelle guys. We began with the panels you may have seen a while back for the Goodguys giveaway Chevelle...
Link There are still some design changes we want to make to the panels.
A couple of big build projects have occupied a great deal of shop time recently, thus tying up any development time we have for new fiberglass parts. It looks to be that way for another couple of months.

We do everything ourselves, in house, from the design sketches and ideas to sculpting the plugs for new parts, prototyping, mold making and manufacturing the pieces. Being a small company, we have to get thrifty with where we balance fab time versus prototype time. Prototyping a brand new part is incredibly intensive both time and cost-wise. Right now we have more vehicles in the fab shop than we ever have had, which is great, we just need more hours in the day!

We hope to be expanding or interior parts line to the Chevelle crew pretty soon.
Stay tuned!
:thumbsup:

Door Panels and Defrost Vents
 

I am starting to put the interior in Marks 69 camaro. There is some pictures of the install from camaros.net. How did you mount the door panels to the doors since they have no back,,just a outer shell. Also have you made any defrost vents for the dash yet. We are going to the interior shop next month.

Posted this elsewhere, but for the sake of reference:

You can attach the panels in a number of ways.
We have customers who have had great success with a double sided upholstery/trim style tape (foam type) - very sticky!
Many have used a hidden, or 'blind' fastener (I have heard them called 'Christmas tree clips' before) on the backside of the panel, located into a requisite hole on the door shell.
Others have used an oem approach, with a visible screw and washer like a factory setup.
We have plans for a defroster vent, however, not a production ready part yet.

Chris

Door Panels
 

I still dont see how this will work since your door panels have a 1/8" to 3/16" lip on the edge of the door panels. There is no way to use double stick tape on that thin of a lip.

Now if the door panels had a 1/2" lip on the back side then the clips or double sided tape will work.

Mike

Mike, we had to make little U shaped brackets to attach the "christmas tree clips" to. This way the bracket sat flush with the inside of the door. Depending on where we located the brackets, they needed to be between 1/2" and 1" tall.

Does this make sense? I'd provide pictures but I think I lost them all due to a corrupted card.

Matt

Thanks Matt,

From what you are saying is that you made "L" brackets. Then bolted/screwed them to the fiberglass door panel. Then used clips on the "L" bracket that inserted into holes on the door. That would work but the screw heads would need to be flush with the fiberglass so you dont see the indention from the screw head in the leather material.

Dash Vin Number
 

Since I removed the metal dash to install the fiberglass dash where did you install the vin tag. I do not want to put it on top and am thinking of putting it on the drivers side lower dash. When you open the door you will see it.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Actually, the brackets we made look kinda like this, with the triangle representing the "christmas tree clip"
∆
_l¯l_

This allows you to fiberglass the ends to the back of the door easily, meaning you won't have any exposed screws.

Also, any reason you don't want to mount the vin close to the where it originally was? I know some states like California, for example, are really picky about this, and technically I don't think you're supposed to tamper with, or remove the vin from its original location. This is what we did, and it doesn't look bad:

Matt, that vin was moved forward correct? mine sits back futher
