67 upholstery

I need some ideas or info. I have a friend that has a 67. And he wants me to redue his truck interia. The seat taken care of he got one out of a late model and bought the carpet. But hes wants me to do a matching leather or vinyl headliner in the 67. Which should not be to bad in a 67. Just glue it to the metal roof and back. But hes also wanting me to do the dash also he has a custom home built console he wants me to cover. He said like glue the material to the dash/console or They make a spray paint that after you spray it on. It looks like its covered in a leather or vinyl. I have seen something like a vinyl spray before,but never used it. Have any of you ? Did it look good ? I have seen some later model trucks and do look like the dash might have been painted. Any ideas,or types of products you have used.

Re: 67 upholstery

Wrinkle paint?It was used alot in British cars.It looks like the vinyl applique I`ve seen in 60s American cars.I think there is a simulated leather spray.Look in a JC Whitney catalog or Hemmings Motor News under "Supplies & Services".I`ve seen HMN in Borders' magazine section.
