[left]Very Nice, I made some kick panels out of brown leather. Sewed and everything. Will be making a piece for where the map packets would go but won’t have pockets. Will be doing door panel inserts and a big leather backing for behind the seat on the back wall.

I've used "peel n seal" on the back of the cab, just behind the seat. No higher than that lip below the flat piece of metal that goes around the rear window.
(Use to make it in the factory one summer while off of college)

I have a big roll of 1/4inch closed cell foam that's somewhat rigid and was given 5 big genuine brown leather cow hides with a 1928 Buick I bought. Sold the Buick, kept the hides.

Plan is to cut the leather to size and fold over the edge and sew it to give it a clean edge then glue that to the foam backing board then use industrial Velcro to hold it on. Then it can be removed if need be.

I've used peel n seal inside of a lot of trucks, always rust free but have always wondered how bad it would be to fix floors if god forbid they started rusting one day.

I've been thinking about a set to have a place to stash more crap like....Maps...lol


But I want a hard pocket....been thinking about just heading to the pull a part and finding a set of car door panels to cut up for the lower map pocket section. When I do that I'll post up pics.

Thanks,
I could only read your pm through email. It won't let me open it or send you one through the forum since my account is new, I assume.

But a couple of weeks is completely understanble. Just keep me informed and that would be great. I'll send your money when you reply with your PayPal account.
Thanks again

I need to rustle up some red vinyl for my '74 Ranger XLT map pockets. PM me if you know any sources for red vinyl suitable for use.

Hi Larry,
Any good grade of vinyl will work, it's more about matching the color that I've found to be the difficult part. I would need 1 yd of material.
Thanks for the interest.
