headliner

In the process of project 66 and I am looking well into the future but can't seem to locate a headliner. Does anyone sell these new/reproduction?

Re: headliner

There isn't one because our trucks never had one

Re: headliner

At one time RodDoors made custom headliners for our trucks, but they went out of business in 2009.

Here’s an earlier thread with input from other members also looking for headliner ideas:

Re: headliner

Yes i used screws to hold it up there. My plan is to find some buttons with screws that i like and hide the screws but it works for now!

Re: headliner

So would I! I'd like to put a diamond tufted headliner in mine but have never come up with a foolproof and hidden way to reliably hold it in position.

Re: headliner

When I redid the upholstery on my boat there were snaps that were attached by screws and then a cover that snapped over it to hide the screws. Not sure but I think they were called button snaps or something like that.
