Hey guys,

 

Just picked up a 1991 Holden Nova hatch, i.e. an AE92 Corolla (I think?!).

 

The piece of wood covering the spare wheel is pretty much useless as it's so old and broken... it's not complete either so trying to copy it is too hard. Does anyone know where I could find a template for the wooden cover so that I could make my own out of mdf?

 

Thanks a lot!

ermmm....zero chance i would say. Just use yours as a template and guess the bits that are missing. Or find some cardboard and make your own template.

 

also i'd suggest against MDF. any moisture on mdf and it balloons up and goes all fuzzy.

 

Perhaps look at some marine ply wood.

 

Also, Welcome to rollaclub! don't be afraid to start a members ride of your beast and throw up some pics of your progress.

Cheers for the quick reply!

 

I guess I was hoping that there was a service manual somewhere which had a picture of the cover or something similar... Cardboard is a good idea, I will do that!

 

Thanks for the suggestion on the marine plywood, I'll have a look at Bunnings tonight.

Can do, I am about to make one from my girlfriends KE70. The only hard part is making the little metal clip that holds it in place, which is easy!

Thanks man! I don't know if it'll work going from the KE70 into the AE92 though??

What shaped are you talking about?

COuld always go to a wreckers, find similar car there, either buy intact board or trace it out?

Remove that carpet section and trace onto the timber sheet?
