Door Panels

[Bloodman324]

Hey, does anyone know were I could get some door panels for my 81 kingcab? or if you have some I could buy from ya? I need new ones, well ones in good condition, either black, brown, or blue in color. Any help would be great

You could make your own.

Search how to make door cards, its pretty much just mocking up old cards and cutting them out of any thin sheet of wood and covering them in what ever material you like. staple and glue to stretch your material around the piece, then mount it on the door.

I will tell you that most pieces on a Datsun can be cleaned to work or fully built by you. They are pretty simple machines.

Ah I see, well I will give that a try, thanks man

Looks like you could repair your current door panels. The place with the hole where the speaker was can be filled with new fiberboard or just make a new panel using the old one as a pattern. From what I recall, the panel is completely flat. I'm sure you can make a nice one if you plan ahead.

Ya, im just gonna make my own cuz both panels are shot, the cardboard is curling at the ends and is torn in places, but doing this, i can make the hole for the speaker alot cleaner looking, I saw what you did with yours on the DIY thread, and im thinking bout doing the same thing.

I am re-covering my old ones with some fabric.
