Thanks guys, The diamond plate was just some left over scraps I had from another project and as luck would have it they worked well in the door panels. I might even have enough to make up a headliner...what ya think ?

Im not real happy with the way the carpet turned out it needs to be stretched a little to fit the transmission plate/firewall any ideas ?

Great job Tab! The diamond plate is a nice touch. I have yet to to the doors and headliner. What type of panel did you use on the doors?
