Default Door Panel Question

Well, I have gotten nothing done this week. Out of town 2 days and sick the rest!

But I did sell my driver's door that was beyond my capability to fix. In removing the door panel, it is apparent that the vinyl surface is actually in good shape. The cardboard behind is warped. It doesn't show much in the picture but does show when it's mounted on the door. QUESTIONS:

1) Is there a way to flatten the cardboard back out?

2) If I re-mounted the vinyl on a flat cardboard, would cardboard from another A Body door panel work? , Which models and years would have the same cardboard as the Pontiac? I know where there are some Olds Cutlass and Chevelles...Maybe a Skylark...

I'm going to stick the new door (purple)on temporarily and then get back to work underneath the car.
