Glastron1:
Have a 1971 CV 19 that has been a project boat over the last few years.  Have it posted on the Classic Glastron site.

Well we are down to the last step which is the upholstered wood that goes around the top/inside of the boat. Wood used for the first attempt warped out of shape on the bend between port side and front dash.

Since the GCOAMN seems to have more activity I am reaching out over here to see if anyone has suggestions on the material to used to make the bend.

Love to hear the materials others might have used on this.


Thanks

When I stripped down my CVZ-18 for rebuild it had metal strips bent to match the curve of the console and then pop riveted in place to retain the vinyl.

The aluminum piece go's over vinyl and rivets to deck to make curve.
Hard to explain ... Easy to do ... LOL

Glastron1:
Thanks to both of you for your feedback.  I'll post a picture when we get it wrapped up.

GIL_CV21:
wacky wood will work for that curve
