Sorry to hear about your mother-in-law... Bummer for sure, but it sounds like she was a fighter and went out in style!

Haven't had much time or $$ to work on the Model T, but I finally got tired of looking at the intrior with nothing but the seat and floormat in it.
Now, ol' Henry Ford never put window seals in the doors, I guess the water is supposed to drain through the doors, and out the holes in the bottom of the door... well, where I live, it rains 75-100 inches a year, so it's not a matter of if I get caught in a rainstorm, it's just when.
So using Masonite, or wood paneling wasn't gonna work, I know it would "potato chip" the first time it got wet... so what can I do?
I went to Home Depot, and started just wandering the aisles.
Came across the lumber section, and here was 4'x'8 sheets of 100% recycled PVC sheets, used for shower enclosures...it even had a texture on it kinda like a basketball.
So I got some trim screws, a new blade for my jig saw, and some plastic paint... I could have done thw whole thing with one 4'x8' sheet, if I hadn't screwed up one of the door panels, but still, the whole cost was right at 50 bucks...it certainly isn't professional, but it's better than what I had, and I don't have to worry about it getting wet

This car just drove up from Crescent City to Roseburg for the Graffiti Weekend. He only had some very minor issues coming up and the car received lots and lots of attention!VW power... More expensive than ever!

Unfortunately the last post on this was about 1.5 years back, Christmas Eve 2011. Looks like 26Tudor was logged in in April of this year, but hasn't posted lately. It would be nice to see an update from him.
