Great job, I use to see a black one parked in a vacant lot for many years growing up, If only some one would have given it this type of love.

John

Your truck has it all stance, attitude, clean, simple I could go on and on. Your eye for detail is so right. The interior blows me away, because it goes away from so many, the one pc headliner, simple side rear panels, wood floor and the accent of the painted access panels and of course the wood floor. Your interior is exactly what I envision for mine and now the bar is clearly shown as high for me and I will do my best not to copy you but compliment yours. Great job John for the whole build, my hat is off to you and thanx for the ideas you have just created in my mind.
That is a 1 pc headliner I believe, did you have that made? From what I can tell it seems in my mind it is formed fiber board covered with a suede material.
Nice just plain nice

Thanks Gerry. The main part of the headliner is from a Ford Club Van. The front about one and a half feet is from a Chevy headliner. The rear section I made from plywood and pieces of headliner and formed funnels for the speakers, then I fiberglassed the whole thing. You can see pics in my gallery. Your headliner would be different as you still have the barn doors and I made the funnels to hide the hinges.

Goes to show your visions only limitation is your mind. I am heading to the local dismantler yard and start studying headliners. True ingenuity and creativity on your part. Thanx for the boost of enthusiasm, I was in a lull here.
