Great pics and good car choice. The details jump out at you, very real.
Wish I could see them full screen... my laptop screen's a little small to view all of it at once. Will look again tomorrow at work.

Really nice! One question though.. Is the RAM on the steering wheel accurate?
I'm not sure when Dodge started using the RAM, but I am pretty sure it was well
after '69. Didn't Dodge share the 3 pointed star with Chrysler back then?

your votes will really help.
as for the ram in the steering wheel: i tried to keep this model as close to the original as possible. my reference photos, although nice, were not good enough for the job i needed them for. i was comparing different car interiors to make out the from the differences between them which parts were the originals. i had a very difficult time even making out that it was a ram's head on the steering wheel (i mean i had no idea!). i did a lot of research on the net, learned a lot of stuff for the car on the net, but i can't be perfect. and it's a very very minor detail, i am suprised you even noticed
other photos of interiors didn't have side vents, i had 10 interiors with 10 different steering wheels, so i picked the best one i liked out of them that seemed original (and saw it in 2+ different interiors, so there was a less possibility of it being aftermarket product
, others had a radio, others didn't. i wish i had blueprints and made it accurate though
i love accuracy in my models. that's why i hated not noticing the side line of the car. a lot of work to change back now and don't have time for that :/ looks like i have to be more accurate if i target photorealism

Very, VERY nice job. However, the Ram's head on the steering wheel is inaccurate. I would have been the Chrysler pentagon star. Also, I notice that the wheels are not original - small point.
All in all, a very, VERY good job. You should be proud.
