Mike,   my guess is that the bottom shelf is the *original* one... and that someone put a reproduction shelf on top of it sometime later...  ??

  Perhaps the original owner did. I bought the car in 1980 from the original owner and prior to that it sat in his garage for 6 years (with a bunch of shite on top) before I came along. Maybe the Ca. sun did its damage then and he had a new shelf installed (if there was a repro back then). When I start to restore the car this is one area I will scrutinize.

.. or maybe the original type tray was available from the dealer at that time, but without the insulating layer of material on bottom?...?   The pattern and thickness of the upper tray looks to be right on the money...
