I have a brown, multiple fold tarp taped down over the flooring carpet in
the 84.

Ummmmm.....

We have an extra 5x6' plastic tarp for those reasons.  It takes up
less space, is washable, and more durable.  So I think there must be
something more to this "large sheet of cardboard".

Speaking of which, I'm desperately searching for the windscreen shade
thingie that was, and was labelled as, "This vehicle is protected by a
large sheet of cardboard".

Anyone know where these can still be found?
