    My side panels are 10 ft by 20 inch. I had first hoped that I could reuse the wood and just re-vinyl them. However, if I do need new plywood, do I need a 10 ft piece? or is there way to use an 8 ft piece? I was just at Menards and its about $160 out the door for a special order 10x4x1/2 of...

    What should I use to replace the foam squeegee looking stuff they had between the wood support structure and the aluminum sheet? I was thinking maybe a thin plastic cutting board?

    I cut a new piece of plywood for the dash, but I couldn't get it wedged in there, so took of the front section of aluminum sheet. Of course to do this I had to take apart the rub rail. I pray I can get the rubber back in the rub rail when the time comes. Also there is a support piece of...
