WTB: 72 door panels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Solver · 04-05-2004, 01:38 AM

Looking for some nice white 72 Cheyenne door panels. Prefer not to be chaulking or all scratched up. Let me know what you have and how much

**StingRay** · 04-05-2004, 10:39 AM

Here's a tip for white 72 door panels. If they are all chalked up lightly sand or bead blast them.... and I do mean lightly. The oxidized plastic will be removed leaving perfect flat (no gloss left) white door panels wtih all of the molded detail. After a few years the gloss will even return as the plastic ages. Works the same on other colors but looks like crap. Only the white ones look good as a flat color.

I have a set at home. I will try and get you a picture this evening.

Vinnie thanks for the link but those are the standard 72 door panels. The cheyenne panels have slots and chrome trim rings and sometimes woodgrain inserts. 69 k5 thanks for input but the metal panels were not available for the 72 chevy pickups. Thanks anyway

breeh · 04-05-2004, 09:25 PM

Solver, Is there a difference between white and parchment? I think that the ones that I have may be parchment. The woodgrain inserts will need to be replaced too because they have rubbed off by the window crank. I will let them go cheap though!

**too much stuff** · 04-05-2004, 10:08 PM

I think i have a set of white ones in good shape with the chrome trim ring, but no wood grain. I can check later in the week if you want.

Solver · 04-06-2004, 12:32 AM

Too much stuff-- still interested let me know when you find out what you have and how much

Breeh also interested and yes parchment an white are the same
if you have a pic or prices let me know or email me at

solver@evertek.net

breeh · 04-08-2004, 12:09 AM

SOLVER, I pulled the panels out of storage. One of them is slightly chalky and they both have a few scratches. They are driver quality, definitely not show quality. This is the better of the two:

breeh · 04-08-2004, 12:10 AM

Slightly chalkly. If you are interested, you can have them for $20.00 plus shipping.

**StingRay** · 04-08-2004, 12:15 AM

For that price take em and try the sandblasting trick. I was amazed what it did for mine. You've got little to lose at that price.

breeh · 04-09-2004, 11:57 AM

Solver, I guess that you are not interested?

nu2-72 · 04-09-2004, 05:18 PM

69k5, do the doors that you removed the panels from have the small screw inside below the wing mirror?
If not, they are not 72 doors and not 72 panels. Or, someone may have changed the regulators and door panels to 71 back.
It might be the rare instance that it was one of the first trucks built for 72 and thus had 71 parts but 72 doors are different and panels were not metal.
Any of the vendor catalogs show this very well with LMC shpwing excellent color pics.

teeitup · 04-09-2004, 06:49 PM

I have some, I'll look and see condition

Solver · 04-10-2004, 12:54 AM

Breeh
Thanks for the reply
I have an old pair here I am going to try sandblasting. If that works I may be interested.
Problem is at that distance shipping may be more than panels.
I'll let you know if you still have them after test

**StingRay** · 04-10-2004, 02:21 AM

Remember to go very lightly. Just enough to knock off the oxidization and no more.

*Cruiser71* · 04-10-2004, 03:08 AM

I have a set of white ones in the garage. I think they came off a Cheyenne. If no one else has what you want, Ill dig them out and take a few shots and post pictures.
