Highliner cab headliner available? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

hgs_notes · 05-14-2005, 11:40 PM

I just came across an add for the old Highliner plastic cab headliner. It is in the latest Classic Trucks magazine. It says its made by Palco Industries and lists the 67 - 98 Chevy trucks, but the website they list, dashtop.com doesn't show anything in the catalog yet. I'm calling during business hours.

I know this thing was mentioned in a thread recently. I remember seeing them available years ago. I figure this could be useful to many members here. I know I'm considering it.

Your talking about the parchment colored headliner right?

sdkid · 05-15-2005, 04:14 AM

I thought he meant the one with the speakers and such in it.

[for the old Highliner plastic cab headliner]
I think this is the plastic aftermarket one with the four 4" speakers in it, isn't it?

Yes it is.

*dtlilly* · 05-15-2005, 12:53 PM

Oh yeah, J.C. Whitney has sold them for at least 20 years.

I saw the ad in Classic trucks. They are made by Palco who I have purchased door panels from. If it fits as bad as my door panels did I don't think you want it. Maybe the headliner will fit? who knows!

Did anybody find out if these headliners are available again? Anybody own one?

I had a headliner and I hated it. If you want something really cool go to roddoors.com. They have a complete interior kit for our truck. Custom panels, headliner, carpet, pillar covers with tweeters built in and rear cab covers to basically upholster the whole truck. It also comes with speaker boxes that mount in the top back corner of the cab. If you want to see what it looks like take a look at the inside of "Project Copperhead"

These tops were discontinued from PalCo and JC Whitney IIRC. Brothers still has the Highliner headliner for about $300 I think. Like was said before, though, I would pay a little extra and get one from RodDoors to get the fabric to match and such. My $.02

The Highliner by Palco Industries is still available according to an ad in the current Custom Classic Trucks mag. www.dashtop.com 1 800 349 3274 if ya care to check em out. I don't think i would want to spend 3 bills on this plastic thing though.
