Anyone know if that's the same shape as the 1981? I am also going to need one. Or fake it... I have my rug and the stiff sides still....

Someone, can't remember who, had the idea of using the trunk carpet as rough template for a cardboard template and then going from there.

Alright. I'll try that. Is that black plastic thing on the left covering the hoses stock or did you make that?

My 80 has that cover too. It is from the factory.

My 81 might have it. The PO hasn't given me the wood. And may not have it... I can actually fabricate one if I need to.

Real important to protect those hoses from things bouncing around back there!
