When was the last time you backed up your bragging with pictures? You need to either give some proof of your "expertise" or stop harassing board members.
mytbtruck- Not bad. Did you notice a reduction in in-cab noise once that was installed? I've been toying with a full headliner for my 69 F250, but not sure if it's worth the extra hassle in my case. It does look pretty sweet though.

Nice work on the head liner.
Did you take lots of pictures??? it would help some of us when we get to that stage,if we get to that stage.



Mr Blow back. I do believe you when you say yours is much nicer but how much did it cost daddy???
And how long did the shop take to do it???
Have you seen my work???
I could use a trained eye to tell me what I need to do to get a big shiny trophy,so you can choke on it!!!!

And why wouldn't YOU post pictures? Could it be that you have nothing worth showing anyone.

Nice job on the headliner. I'm only to the point of putting the board in on our 41.

Please keep the progress pictures coming. It definately helps those of us that actually have trucks and don't know everything.

Good job Carlene!

Very nice headliner, despite what some other dip&)#@ says.

Wasn't me this time. That was the good work of your forum mod. He deserves all the kudo's and a few rep's to boot.

I mainly showed up cause like the rest of you, I wouldn't mind seeing this perfect truck Joe supposedly has along with some resto pictures of him doing the work.

Nice job, and I like the bracket weld-in addition for the shoulder belt.

Note: for those of you who add this bracket, it needs to have a nut welded to the outside so that the securing bolt has a threaded area to bolt to. Also, it's a good idea to weld this in before the paint is done!

Nice truck, Jag

Too bad about the deactivation JOE BLACK. You won't be missed. It's unfortuate that some people have to be negative to others in order to make themselves feel better. Good work deserves a positive response. And if your work product was indeed better, which I doubt, how does it help anything to denigrate others?

Jaye, Thanks for the info you sent me. I know a man that does headliners and let him install it. He used ABS and covered it with padding and cloth. I am well satisfied with it. The area behind the seats is covered with the same carpet used on the floor. I put the carpet there because I have the spare tire behind the drivers seat and the carpet take more beating than the cloth would. Thanks again and I hope to see you at Fat Boys soon. Larry.
