Headliner

I saw this on another site. Many color options to choose from. I had the impression that they were all a beige color from the factory. Does anyone know?
65-66 Ford Full Size Truck, Standard Cab Headliner, F100/F150 1965, 1966

The bits that were left on my '65 were white. It's nice to have options other than the perforated fiber board. Hopefully it is a quality piece, because I would be interested.

They all were of the fiberboard material... The Custom Cabs were all perforated, the standard cabs werent.
They all are of the same color/pattern though for the most part.

I just went through this whole mess. I got the pattern and installed the FRP in my Slick and really don't like it - reminds me of a shower stall. I'm going to cover it with material. If I had to do it over again, I'd spend the extra $100 and buy the headliner from Stockinteriors.com.

Yes, the cardboard headliners were like a white/beige color.

I know I'm going to get flack for this, but this is one of the very few things I like about the Chevy's,
they had a very nice finished steel ceiling, I've always thought our trucks were a little "chinsey" in
this area, with the crap cardboard headliners....don't know why Ford didn't follow suit.

The D.C one I installed is a great fit, and anything else just doesn't look "right" in my humble opinion.
I'd love to see someone who's done theirs in a welded integrated set-up similar to a Chevy.

I have thought about getting one of these, and figuring out a way to mount it to FRP, and then cover it in cloth to make it look right. I just am not the finish fab guy I would like to be.

I think I'm going to buy one. It has to be better than the warped carpet covered ones that are in my truck now.

Big Mike...it looks great whats in your truck...I wouldnt cover that ...just my opinion but how did you get it to bends and all appropriately w/o cracking/breaking it?? The front corners are a pain to do it appears...given their tight radius they have to contour to.

I did mine in FRP as well. I put some door edge molding on it to soften the edges, and I like it. The only parts I thought would crack were the back cab corners, and they tried to crack until I warmed the panels with a heat gun, and bent them to fit.
