Thanks. It's going into a 68 Acadian (same thing as a Nova but says Acadian on it instead). No sorry, not planning on making any to sell. This one alone has taken me probably 15-20 hours to make by the time I measure, cut, weld, clean and on and on. Not that I am comparing in any way, but now I can see how some of the custom stuff that Fesler and other places do cost so much. The labor is the killer.

I'm hoping to use the Fesler door panels. I've also debated about taking a shot at making my own. We'll see.
Got a little bit done today. Moved the shifter back into it's original location. I like it better there. Also had to cut a few pieces out and I made the ebrake hole.
I know the one side is a little bit off, but it's a one off piece. It all can't be dead on. Plus with the leather, it will never even be noticeable.
I'm not sure if I like the cup holders I have. I think they are a little too big. I want a set that when I put a regular pop bottle into it, it doesn't flop all over the place. The ones I have have about half an inch all the around still. Does anyone know of any that fit a bottle snugly.
