Headliner

[D35 Torpedo]

I finally have a headliner in the old girl. At the beginning of summer I installed underlay on the ceiling, and have been waiting patiently for my friend to have time to stitch me up a headliner. Well that day came on friday, so I went to work installing it this weekend. It turned out fairly good other than a few glue spots I need to address. I don't have the rear side windows in yet, and I need to seal the back glass. I almost like the look of a one piece rear side window. It would be fixed though. Anyways, what do you think?

Congratulations 
looks like you did a great job.

Thanks, I still need to add a piece on the B pillars...it should be one piece.

Wow. It's beautiful. Great job!

That is a job I fear to tackle and you did do a fabulous job.

Thanks gang. This my first headliner. I've been dieing for the chance to do one, so I embraced this challenge. Since last weekend I've been working on run channels and felt seals for the back windows. I also made B pillar covers and installed them. I just glued material to some thin cardboard and tucked the one side into the sharks teeth. With wet weather hear it will be nice to know that everything is sealed up tight.

Thanks, I have no idea. I looked through hundreds of rolls until I came across this stuff. It seems to have a cross weave. It has some stretch parallel, but a lot of stretch diagonally. And it frays somewhat easily on two ends. There was just enough for the headliner and visors.
