Re: interior door panels on my 52
I use the old cardboards to make a patterns with formica and cover it with vinyl upholstery material (spray contact cement), it still has a good thickness to fit in the metal trim that surrounds it - most of those pieces are probably long gone tho - if so fold over the vinyl and glue it in place.

I bought the stock cardboard with metal brackets and wrapped them in material. Turned out fairly nice.
