I'm working on my friend's rambler and she has this terrible particle board that needs to be replaced. We're discussing what to replace it with.
What do you guys use for door panels? 1/8th plywood or plastic or something else maybe?

most of my friends use Luan 1/4 inch but they all have older cars where the panels are straight.
Click on this link:http://www.cadvision.com/blanchas/54...oorpanels.html I used this in my '54 Ford budget build,all 4 panels only $120.:D
We use .040 aluminum,It is strong and can bend in to place
Here's a thread on door panels ran a few months back.

These are beautiful! Excellent work! How did you fasten them to the door?
Recovery Room your works looks great and it's always clean with nice lines just how I like my interiors to look. I think sometimes people just do way to much and they forget that the car is suppose to be the main focal point and then the interior.
We use metal spring clips
I will take pics for you today
Chrysler style
