Quarter panel to floor braces (these are the bolt on braces inside the car) I have not found these yet.
Rear window access covers (only used in convertibles, and I still need em if you got em)
Rear seat frame
Convertible coctail shakers (I will not need to use these since I am doing some things to stiffen the frame, and I have a fully tunable suspension.)
Under dash bracket that the steering column, clutch and brake pedals, and brake master cylinder attach to.
Wiring covers that screw to the rockers inside the car.
Trunk catch bracket.
When I started pulling parts together earlier in the year, much of the window hardware was not yet available, so I bought it all used and had it replated. Most is now available though.
Well, that is about all I can think of. I am sure I am missing some things that I would not use even if they were available, like some of the original style A/C ductwork, etc.

I'm surprised that the hinge brackets and under dash bracket aren't part of the Dynacorn body.
As far as the Quarter panel to floor braces, if you mean the kidney bean shape looking things check Camaros.net there was a guy selling a pair awile ago, or atlest he had a set. Same for the Rear window access covers
Here are the harness covers: they should be the same for a vert

I'm floored that they don't make the ashtray and GB doors in repo....
As far as the rear seat, since this is a custom car think about a custom rear seat, some here, I believe, have used 4th gen rear seats and you can incorporate a cool arm rest with maybe some cup holders.
I wish I could help but I don't have any spare parts like what you need.
I would also look into a vintage ac unit and forget factory ducting...
