[VintageLambo] Re: espada dash access cover

Author: lgpdk

Message

I renewed mine many years ago. The usual warpage problem is that the leather, which only is on top, shrinks in the sun more than the masonite. If the masonite is too thin the whole assembly warps. Some solutions could be leather on both sides, structurally solid (thick) masonite and/or soft edges (internal rubber trim) to absorb the shrinkage.
