64 Valiant Trunk Liners

Not the trunk, but for the cardboard divider between trunk and back seat in my 1965 Dart, I used the fabric divider from a 1983 M-B 300D that I stripped. It has a rubbery coating on the seat side and white fabric (polyester?) on the trunk side. M-B hung it off the top seat hooks, which I did but cut new slots since the Dart's were in different places. Otherwise, about the same size and flows down under the bottom seat a bit for better sound-proofing. I just trimmed it a bit at the lower sides w/ scissors. The fabric feels really strong, so unlikely it will rip at the slots over time. There are likely many other sedans w/ similar separator material.

Haven't figured what I will do for the trunk floor, but the thin carpet cover from the M-B might fit. Not sure how I'll cover the spare tire well. Perhaps I'll leverage something at the junkyard next time. The M-B was missing that hardboard cover. ABS sheet might work, but pricey and might sag from heat. Home Depot carries plastic sheet - acrylic and polycarbonate. The later is very tough (used for bullet-proof windows), but not cheap. They also carry PVC channel sheet, as used in political signs and such, which might work, as does JoAnn's Fabrics.

BTW, I got that 300D for free (just haul it) and had recently been repainted but doors, glass, seats, and engine were missing. So now I have almost every other part for my 2 300D's, plus got a replacement fender and hood to fix what my daughter wrecked. I sold the stripped shell as scrap steel (only $45, but paid for the U-haul trailer to haul it there).
