Cab Paneling Templates

[sam knopik]

Does anyone have a template or dimentions for the interior panels? If so, that seems like it would be very useful on the Piliothouse Truck Knowledge page.

If someone has a sketch of the dimensions, I could draw them up in cad and print it to a full size PDF that people could take to kinkos to get printed. I have not removed mine yet, so I don't have a template.

I sell the templates for all the interior panels for $40 including postage.

I donate $10.00 of each sale to the Pilot House Club.

What do you use for backing fo the material?

The PO of mine had some thin plastic sheeting that seems to have held up well but the material on it is horrendous, fuzzy, and getting old. I killed a naugah a while back and have the hide. Just have not had time to install.

Allen, good thing the naugahs aren't on the endangered species list. lol

[Merle Coggins]

Hopefully you got a baby Naugah. They've got the best hyde.

What do you use for backing fo the material?

I purchased door panel board from a local upholstery shop. After I contact cemented the vinyl to the pieces I cut out I took it back to the upholsterer and had him stitch around the edges and add some piping around the perimeter of the door panels.

I understand those naughahs are on the protected species list in Pennsyltucky and Oklatana-better get them while their still available.

I'm doing mine up Chris-Craft style...steamed and bent wood for the ceiling, flat panels for the kick panels and doors. The original owner was a big fan of wooden boats, so is my father in law, so is my wife. Me too come to think of it. Mahogany, cigar box cedar (Spanish/Cuban aromatic -mildly toxic- mahogany) and western red cedar. They'll outlast the cardboard originals and I'm not putting vinyl in a non-work truck. Don't want my truck to smell like a box of cheap bandages.
