[A/S] 66 Caravel Water Heater Cover



I need the water heater cover for the outside of the 66 Caravel. Is the best 
bet to get a sheet metal place to make one? One of the guys on the list sent 
me a good picture. Are there any resources for one? Anyone had one made and 
what was the cost? I thought I would have 2 made if the cost isn't too bad so 

if one comes loose or whatever I would already have the next one ready.

Also this weekend I took down my original folding door and took it to an 
uphosterer 
and they resewed all the seams and straightened the vinyl,  and recovered 
where the wires were sticking out. I hung it today. It looks pretty good. He 
told me if the vinyl is our of shape you can use a hand steamer or hair dryer 
(if not to hot) to get the material to straighten out. The vinyl was still 
pretty flexible and worked pretty well.
All for a total cost of $12.00.

Thanks.
