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.
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.
