Eric and I are both boatbuilders, so we are not worried about bending panels. We talked about it some today and have a couple ideas for form bending some thin ply, then veneering it with oak as in the original. We are not artists, so the decoration may be difficult, but we have a couple ides for that as well. Currently coach 3 has Masonite bent over the original ceiling, and painted white. That is probably to cover up a dark and deteriorating ceiling.
Today we put the second to last oak strip all around the car. Three molding strips to go and the interior oak is done up to the ceiling.
