[Chevelle-list] Back Package tray ideas

2004-10-29 Thread Chevelle 
Hey guys,

Does anyone have any ideas as far as the back package tray goes in a 70 chevelle? The 
one from OPI is like a cardboard piece that bows over time. Anyone have any websites 
that have done a custom package tray? All I can come up with is using a carpet or 
something to that nature.

Thanx,
Aaron

Are the trays supposed to be glued to metal?

I built a tray for some 6X9's for my old 64 
Impala.
I used 1/4" thick tempered hardboard, covered with 
a layer of cotton batting, and then some color matched vinyl.
The factory one had a taller "finishing strip" on 
the front edge, so I recreated that as well.
The result was, it looked like stock, but provided 
a great mounting surface for the speakers.

you can kinda see it in this picture.

Hi Aaron,
I have a 70 Malibu and for a short fix used what you did which is just
cardboard so I could make the 2004 Midwest Chevy Nationals Memorial day
weekend, and of course it rained, the rear window leaked and warped and
ruined the package tray.  I purchased a new one from C.A.R.S. Inc. which is
a mesh covered tray with a jute backing.  This is what my car had
originally.  You can get it with two cut outs for stereo speakers which do
not show because they are covered with the mesh, or without.  
This company also sells your entire interior needs.  The nice part is that
they manufacture them themselves, and actually sell them to most of the
other suppliers.  I purchased from them my head liner which came with
sunvisor covers included and it looks great.
Hope this helps.   www.carsinc.com
