    WTB: 70-73 fiberboard ventilation cover

    Still looking for the fiberboard cover for the ventilation system aka luggage boot. Looking for the 70-73 version with the snaps in very good shape (apparently you can't be too choosy with these though...). Please PM or email with details.

    Thanks!

    Kaleid-

    Possibly more trouble than you might want to go thru, but what we did for a customers 1970 S that was missing the piece-

    The metal brackets are basically the same on later cars, so we used them from a 930, drilled the rivets, etc. (The later cover is still available from parts) Then we bent a piece of dense craft board of the correct thickness and cut it to shape.

    A coating of fiberglass resin, sanded, gave the correct texture, and helped to keep the shape. Black paint, new rivets, snaps (trim shop if you don't have/save then) Viola!

    PM me if you'd like a pic of the finished product, but I'm sure you get the idea!
