Re: [T3] Door Panel Questions


<x-charset iso-8859-1>The two piece door panels were used on all non-N models up to and including
67.  There are differences in fabric and trim up and down over these years
but I believe the pressboard panels themselves were the same.  I personally
would give a try at restoring original panels before buying new.  The
pressboard can be rejuvenated with a hot iron and a lot of massaging and the
upholstery materials can be cleaned and even vinyl painted in some cases.
More work but less money spent and a much more authentic look in the end.
