Topic: 1965 Convertible Wheelhouse Material

[trudera]

There is a pad/felt material on the top of the wheelhouse on the convertible. Can anyone help with the type, thickness and color?

Mine were made out of the same exact thickness/product/color as the padding sold by NPD that goes under the vinyl upholstery on 65/66 convertible quarter trim pieces.

It had a mint green coating only on the upper surface.  I duplicated that with latex paint, thinly brushed on one side.

This is the padding I used.
