Default Pa28-140 airfoil?

Does anyone know what airfoil (and where I can find a profile of it) I should use for a model of the Pa28-140 (piper Cherokee cruiser)?

Piper tended to use one laminar airfoil for all their single engine products during the late 50's through the 70's. The coordinates are available at the Selig site for the Univ. of Illinois. Laminar airfoils do not always work on models.
