Re: Sound deadening Q ?
Hi Terry,
I think Ford read your mind, and that's why the doors have gobs of that tar-like stuff.

Re: Sound deadening Q ?
You asked about sound deadening for roadster/touring car doors. When we first did our phaeton back in the 1960's, we stuffed the doors with fiberglass separated from the traditional house insulation roll. It seemed to substantially deaden the sound, and also added more of a "classic door closing sound" as well. Since these doors would otherwise be difficult to add a more conventional sound deadening material (like Dynamat, for instance), this seemed to be an otherwise inexpensive means of deadening the door sound. Perhaps the only real caveat that I can see is the possibility of trapped moisture inside the door, but we seldom drive our open cars in the rain (if we can help it), and are generally careful not to let water run down the side curtain rod opening in any event. After more than fifty years, no problems to this point.

I covered my entire floor in my Town Sedan with DynaMat, followed by Jute backed foil and finally carpet. Nice and quiet. I also insulated the fire wall. I eventually went back and fully insulated the insides of the doors and body to make it even quieter inside. |

Re: Sound deadening Q ?
I agree 100% with Y.
Bob's method would change the sound/vibration of an item, but does nothing to truly soundproof or heat/air proof the car. On top of what Bob did I would apply Dynamat to all surfaces while the upholstery is out. |

Could a material like dynaliner, or something similar, be used above the metal net instead of the cotton wadding/padding? \Dan |

Re: Sound deadening Q ?
DkFordor,
I sound deadened the sheet metal on my Tudor and have found that the roof really isn't a problem. I think the stock construction may work very well for insulation. |

I've found the Dynaliner product line works very well as a second layer of insulation on the floor, firewall and roof to block out additional heat and noise. It's available in a few different thicknesses as well. |
