Title: Standard (small) headliner Post by: Wünderwolff on June 01, 2009, 19:23:49 pm As some of you might have seen, I'm busy builing my own looker/race inspired car. I started from an original deluxe 66 model, but I always liked the bare spartan look of a standard model. You know, less is more and all that.
So I discarded all the clips and rails and what not to attach the deluxe headliner. The only part I'm not so fond of is where next to the rear window, the clips were stamped out in the shell. It looks a bit weird now, still don't know whether to leave as is or bondo it to death. However, the reason for the post, I want to finish the headliner in the standard way, only the middle part of the roof covered. And I'm looking for such a small headliner, but to no avail. Does any one know where to buy this? Preferably in black perforated vinyl. If somebody has pictures, be my guest, no good topic can do without ;D Title: Re: Standard (small) headliner Post by: speedwell on June 01, 2009, 19:37:22 pm sorry for the stupid guys behind the wheel ::).................... ;D ;D ;D

Title: Re: Standard (small) headliner Post by: Zach Gomulka on June 01, 2009, 23:44:35 pm I was wondering about that. That would be a dangerous sharp edge. Probably just pinch welt, like what is used around pop out windows? If so, it's cheap and can be found at all auto upholstery shops.

I'll try and post a pic of some I recently bought for one of my standards.
