Today I removed the orignal 30 yr.old rear shelf package tray.It was pretty ratty and dry rotted etc. found a 4x6 area thats really rusted almost thru, so I guess I'll have to cut it out and weld in some fresh metal.The sound deadener in the sail panel area came out semi intact, but is real dry and brittle. I checked some of my parts catalogs to see if I could find replacements for these items ,but had no luck.Anyone out there found a supplier for these? Thanks in advance.

I did find some material at Oshkosh for airplanes, this material is light weight and has a heat shield backing. If this would work let me know I'll get some Info for you.

3M and a number of others make a replacment you can get at paint stores. NAPA auto parts has it, but I can't remember the number. It comes in sheets about a foot square, I use it nearly every day at work in body repair. I even stick it in new doors and door skin jobs were there wasn't any. Nothing makes the door sound more solid that that stuff.
