Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. When the carpet was installed Dynamat and padding was used. Inside of the doors will be next when the panels get back on.
I was thinking about using Dynamat on the firewall when I get under and do the re-wiring and heater work.
Most of the interior noise is from the motor and trans., as far as I can tell.


I used the summit brand for the firewall
And then I put commercial pad
Over it with some trimmed to fit card board

That's the loudest area on my truck as well.

It made a good difference adding insulation to firewall and adding blocking covers below the dash

I used similar stuff to recreate the center console sides for my vette, I didnt like the carpeted side panels for it. Where did you find yours?

It was just from Amazon. Abs plastic sheets. Used two, one for each side of the dash

Good thread! I'm curious to know what's the best company out there that makes the Original style soundproofing with period correct materials? Thanks.
