[Healeys] Door card material

Buy the panel board from a supplier like:

The stuff is made exactly for this purpose.  Easy to cut , shape, glue, install and it lasts. If the door card needs to be a little stiffer in places, say around the door pocket opening on a 100 or early 6 cylinder cars, you just glue another strip of the card panelboard to the back side before covering with your vinyl / leather. 
If you build the panels out of material that is to thick it can ruin your day when the doors don’t shut easily anymore.

Subject: [Healeys] Door card material

I'm getting ready to make new door cards and trim my doors. My research has found that people use everything including ABS plastic, foam board, masonite and plywood. I'm leaning towards Baltic Birch plywood at this point but I would like the infinite wisdom of this list before I go down that, or any other, road.
