Headliner in progress
Last month I picked up a 4 piece headliner from a wrecking yard, all four pieces were nice and it kinda looked OK in my truck. Actually I did not like it. So I decided to have a custom headliner put in. I wanted it to look good for the f100 western nationals on June 21.08.
I put the beginning photos of progress in my "Grill of my Dreams" gallery and I'll add more photo's as I take them. Projected completion Friday 5-2-08

I sure once completed it will be another cool portion of your truck. Is that a mixer of foam , fiberglass & body filler?
I just took the originial headliner with arat hole/nest in it and cover it with headliner fabric in my 65, not a good pic in my gallery.. But I got another old 4 piece liner for my next project truck.

2 Q's Robert.
1. Can you go into a little better detail on what were looking at there? I'm into the fiberglass boat thing and this looks like something I can do as well. Similar of course LOL..
2. Is the one you picked up from the yard the original perf board style ? and what are your plan for it if you wont be using it ? Mines shot to hell and I don't want to spend the $$ on a new replacement. A used one would be great or at least a tracing of it so I could cut my own out of a substrate that fit's the bill. PM me if there is an chance of getting a tracing (I have the paper to size)

Q2: The headliner I picked up was not the perf board as I originally thought the board if not carefull would break off if you touched it wrong. the piece that went from headliner to rear window snapped in half but would work the only good pieces were the corners. Another buddy of mine wanted to try and salvage what he could I'll ask him to make a template if the main headliner piece and the second piece.
I put new pictures in my gallery check them out.

Said it before and I'll say it again- beautiful truck man. And it just keeps getting cooler....
Didn't catch the headliner matching hood thing right off the bat, felt kinda stupid, but that is probably a hard picture to get. I would have caught that right off if I had seen the truck in person. I like it!
