Even if you were feeling cheap I think that some of these tiles would do wonders. And I figured up how many you need and its only about 30 bucks for them. I am going to do the whole shebang on mine and put tiles plus the MLV plus the closed cell foam in my roof because I drive a Ford (which has the best AC in the world IMO) and wont be satisfied unless it is a virtual refrigorator in the 72 also.
P.S. donor roof skin looks AMAZING!!!

Thanks again and Thanks for the link I will check them out! I was thinking dynamat or similar. Definitely needs something for insulation and sound deadening. The other 2 trucks I had (well only drove one) were very noisy like driving in a giant can.
And I like AC, not real big on sweating in this heat

Thats a great idea too, I will have to look into using a headliner and removing some of the skin maybe. I wonder if it would need extra bracing there though. any though on that? Im starting to wish they made aftermarket cabs for these trucks
