Next challenge will be the seat mounting and spare tire carrier. I also painted the dash top as the windshield is going in soon.

Where did you source the rear CST panels, and are you happy with the quality?

Re: 1972 Highlander (Forum Truck)

I think I got them from Brothers a while back. I believe the brand is PUI. The fit was about as good as reproduction parts fit. They’re much puffier than original but, most reproduction door panels I’ve used are puffier than originals. I've used Chevelle, Nova, and Camaro PUI door panels and they are all overstuffed. I think Legendary interiors makes the nicest stuff but, not sure if they make the CST panels. Not many options though as finding originals is not going to happen.
