Custom Door Panel Help

[fesler]

we are buying some new tools to make more interior stuff so we can make them faster and for a better price. I am working on all of this stuff now so check back with me. I have a 70 here that we did so designing a door panel for it is easy. I just have to buy the tools.

bitchin' i love the looks of your door panels and if its the bagged silver nova youre referring then im on board. I didnt realized what an undertaking and costly affair this would turn into. rather than save money it would probably only aggravate me. lets see how impatient i get and see if i still want to make my own becuase of the great info from the other members on here. Thanks for teh reply. love the rest of your stuff and cant wait till i can get some funds to buy the hood hinges and trunk hinges!

About time you buy all the materials, pay for the labor and then pay for the upholstery you will have quite a bit of money in them. I think the Fesler one's are perfect for the price and they really look good. Although, Fesler doesn't make them production yet for your Nova check with him anyway. But, any custom stereo shop or custom upholstery shop can make them.

great point. i do love teh fesler stuff. never lets me down when i see what they do. im still on the fence about designing and building my own. im sure by the time i pull my hair out trying to figure it out how to do it ill be ready for fesler to step in.

EDIT: I guess someone already posted it.....but I'm reposting it.

Bill check out Gary's custom 1972 442 door panels he's making out of 1/8" PVC.
I'm going to follow his lead and go all black in my metallic green 70 442 tribute.
To the OP this is something you should also check out.

The costs for this design are VERY VERY minimal.
Materials are under $100. Totally demystifies the whole daunting task.
His inserts are covered with vinyl carbon fiber and chrome tape found in most parts stores.
Very simple to accomplish and the end result is pretty damn nice IMO.

Check out his dash too, he dumped the faux wood vinyl overpriced junk and put the vinyl carbon fiber over it as well.
I totally dig it.

I LOVE THIS CHEVELLE's INTERIOR!!!!!

I called the shop in Fort Lauderdale that allegedly did the interior work. I never got a hold of anyone. Who did the dash and rear seat ?!?!?!?

PM Me the details if you can, I've been trying to find out
what this cost, or if they can make another dash!!!! I know the buckets are Corbeau LG1's from what I can tell.
