I am rebuilding a 1958 Alaskan truck camper that had a lot of water damage.  I'm not trying to make it exactly original, I just want to retain some 1958 charm.  The countertop is BS1088 ply that I hope to cover with vintage Formica when I find a piece to match the rest.

 

Anyone have any suggestions of how I can get this to all jive together?  Right now it is a mix match of several different grains and colors.  Painting is a last resort, and I am no expert at finishes.
