Just finished my latest "cool" add to the Firebird. PITA including spring replacements, rechroming, weld repairs, new upholstery, etc. Came out pretty nice from where I started.

They make much more sense in a 'vert rather than a coupe.

Beautiful!
Two questions...
What are the two holes/round black things near the top of the divider?
Where did you buy your front door panels and are you happy with them?
( I gues that 3 questions but whatever)

Those are speakers. Bass part is mounted in the divider area.

I haven't put the door cards on yet but they look nice. The kit was from Classic (Distinctive Industries). I have heard good and bad about them. The seat covers were nice but I did notice a few flaws in the faux stitching.

There is one answer to balance your 'two' questions. smile

Larry, classic lists the door panels as OER brand. They don't really specify in the full kit what brand but the part number is the same. Does OER have their stuff made by Distinctive and the rebrand it? Or did you find something else? Did you buy the interior kit or piece it together?

I bought the "kit" from classic and you are correct, the door cards and carpet are OER. I haven't put them on, but they look nice. Unknown who actually makes the cards. The covers were Distinctive.

Ah, now I get it. The door panels were OER and the seat covers were Distinctive. When you get around to mounting the door panels I would like to hear if you're happy with them overall. I'm probably going to go that route on my 67 as well if I don't hear anything awful about them. Thanks
