I thought I saw somewhere a set of uncovered interior panels for 29-29 roadster pickup. Now I can't find that on any of the vendors web sites. I want to cover the panels myself. It would be the six pieces, two each kick panels, door cards, and pieces next to the upper seat cushion. Anybody know where I can find them ??

I did this on my rpu a few years back. I went to an upholstery shop and bought some thick card stock. I was told I could get a similar stock at an art supplies store, but the upholstery shop filled the bill. Looking back, I probably should have gone art store. They have (or had) acid-free card stock.

Check out Macs/Ecklers. They sell pre cut panel kits. I was looking at them yesterday.

I used .025 6061 T6 aluminum available from most all aircraft suppliers. It can be rolled so shipping isn't much. Standard sheets are 4' x 8' but most will also sell by the LF in 4' widths.
