I've got a new passenger side shelf that I can trace.  Let me know.

I never saw a reply so thought I'd also ask....
Does anyone have a template for both left & right parcel shelf's (i.e. glove
box)?  My Spit didn't have either when I bought it and it's a pain trying to
piece one together w/ old cardboard and duct-tape.

Or...

A Tale of One, And a Beg for the Other!

I found a source for 4 ply cardboard (non-weather treated) for the LH
parcel shelf.
I have the old one, so I can drill the rivets, lay it out flat, and
make a template to reproduce.  The sheet of 4 ply is almost a perfect
match for the OEM, albiet a white color.  Spray paint will fix that,
and the occasional wetness that it is bound to experience.
BTW, the 32x40 sheet of board was found at a local Beards (framing
shop) and cost $6.90 total (no tax in OR).  I figure I can have the LH
parcel shelf templated, cut, assembled, glued, riveted and painted in
about 2 hours.

Now for the beg.  Does anyone have a template for the RH parcel shelf?
Mine was in about 9 pieces and I threw them (stupidly) away.

I'll let the list know of the outcome of this.
