Interior Finisher Trim Swap (Pics)
#11
The wood ones (oak and walnut) are real wood. It’s veneer, like most furniture finishes and like practically every luxury car out there. But it’s attached to a plastic underlay for structural purposes.
For 10 years I had a 1968 Cadillac DeVille 472 convertible, which I sold in 2018. It had door and console trims that were literally furniture-grade plywood. The finish was shoddy when I bought it so I pulled them out and sanded and refinished just like an old side-table. Stained and varnished and it turned out great. But I don’t think anybody’s made a panel like that in a long time.
