Help with upper windsheild rust repair PLZ!

[encasedmetal]

I have some rust in the upper windshield area of my 63', and I've been looking for patch panels to help with the repair. I've found this: http://www.topbananaparts.com/roof-t...eld-panel.html
but I can't tell if it's for the inside of the cab or the outside. I specifically need the inside. can anyone that's used this panel, or repaired this area give me some insight please? thanks in advance

looks outside to me

It's an outside piece. My pickup had rusted out in both the outside and inside. I used that outer patch for both sides. On the outside, it was just cut out and patch. On the inside I had to take the panel and cut the folds off of it so that I had one long flat bendy piece of metal. Then I could contour it to the shape of the ceiling. You just want to make sure it replaces all of the rusted area. I might be able to find a picture of what it looked like.

that would be great! thank you. It's gonna be hard to fabricate from scratch if I have to go that route

I don't have any pictures of the patch piece in. But here is the cutout I made for it. Make sure when you cut it out that you don't go through the outside layer too.

The front section of the headliner is now available from a company. Their name escapes me but shouldn't be hard to find with a search.

I found an inside piece for 64-66 but not 66. if you think of it- please let me know. thanks

That's all I could find too.

Sorry for the misinformation. I guess my memory failed me. They were for the 64-66. Maybe that piece could still help you? I imagine it's really close with the exception of around the pillars. It's either that or find a donor piece from another cab. Good luck either way. I'm actually about to undertake the same task too. I was lucky to get a rust free donor though.
