51 Chevy door panels made. (Pics)
This car is just a "beater" so I dont want to spend a lot on the interior. Been working on this for two damn days now and still not done! I got the front kick panels and both door panels made. I got both door panels covered and the pass. side done except for the lower half. I want to put black carpet along the bottom of the door panel as a kick panel area. Hopefully tomorrow I will get the drivers door finished and both doors carpeted. Then on to the rear side panels which should be a piece of cake since I can use the exsisting panels. Here's some pics of the progress today.

Thanks! I also went to my local GM dealer and got about 30 of those little plastic push in pieces to hold the panel to the door. They worked great!Trust everyone once. Just be cautious of what may be lost.

Great update, Mike! I adhere to Clint Eastwood's philosophy on aging, "Don't let the old man in!" Once in he's hard to evict. Thanks for keeping us involved with your projects!
