serf2 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Does anyone know where I could get door panels and a headliner for a 52 A-30. The original appeared to be like a cardboard type material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Door panels are probbly going to have to be made from 1/8 marine plywood or Masonite and covered with Vinyl or Naugahyde. The headliner is a hard piece to find or make.

Superdog Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Try Lancaster County Upholstery,717-569-3281.They advertise in Double Clutch,says they do E &L model headliners,E would be same pattern as an A cab.Never seen an A model,or anything B model or earlier that had upholstered door panels that weren't aftermarket/custom.

41chevy Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I never really thought about it on the B's but your right. My mixer has vinyl on the doors with the Mack logo, but your right its after market. I suggested a non fiber board panel because I've found the quality of what is out there now is poor. The color flakes off and they aren't moisture resistant as the OEM.

Red Rover Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 We use ABS plastic to make door panels and headliner panels.It is both flexible and waterproof, is grained on one side, smooth on the other, can be dyed or covered in vinyl or cloth. It is a little pricey compared to cardboard but not by much. We use three sixteenths thickness on door panels and eigth inch thick on headliners. It is sold in 4x8 sheets.

41chevy Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Got to remember that when I get to my mixer.
