OK I went to the swap meet friday and met a guy that lives not too far from me. He has was it left of a '71 cheyenne that was parked in a barn for the last 30 years. Was hit and buckled frame. I just took the A/C, cluster,column(when i get back tomorrow, ran out of day light) and dash pad. There isn't much left, Seat belts seem to be in good shape and are White? in color The seat in there white also but coming apart at the end seams. the back glass is still there. How does the headliner trim come off?? i took out the screws but didn't want to brake em. headliner is molded but there. Can i add teh headliner to my truck if it didn't have it before? the column is non tilt and non tach cluster I am going back out tomorrow after work to get the column and what ever anybody might want. So far in owe him $75 for what i got. I think i did alright. there is NO other body parts left just bare cab. Didn't seem to have any rust but pass side has to be buckled a bit somewhere. Don't know if anyone close (OKC area) could use anything else.

headliner trim has some tabs on it that snap into slotted holes, tricky to remove without breaking... if you do get it out, you can saw off the tabs and just use the screws and maybe a little adhesive to attach to your roof.

There may be adhesive on the head liner as well. There was on my 72. I had to slowly pry it off but it came easily

To get the headliner trim off without breaking, use 2 hacksaw blades(or something as flexible) to push on each side of the prongs at the same time. Find the trim piece that goes ON last and start there. IIR there are 3 prongs per piece - total 12. Take your time and they won't break.

Good luck - Bob
