With a closed car tempered masonite should serve well, as you will not have much if any exposure to moisture. For a roadster or convertible I would side with Ken (metal) or Brian (Luan + Thompsons) but would lean more to metal.
That`s why i said look for junk custom vans cause they have the luan panels that are thinner than 1/4" that you cant findat the home stores.
