Who has tried to install these headliners before?
I tried to reinstall an old one. it was not my finest moment.
@@robertarnold6597 I feel yer pain. I totally ruined the first headliner working by myself. Now i hafta order a new one. Not easy as i thought, royal pain in the ass. Need a helper for the big piece, the rest should fall into place hopefully. The vid is excellent i thought and will help me when i decide to do it again.
@@robertarnold6597 oh no was it super brittle?
@Ronald Roswell amzn.to/3u1Nqn9 If you're doing things on your own like this get yourself a set of these. They're a life saver when you need an extra hand.
@@samsupholstery8499 to say the least, yes...it did however already have the curves and bends well engrained into to it (as well as a few unintended curves and bends), so it did go back in, but any clips and retainers were sketchy at best, missing or broken and the locations well gouged out otherwise. I think the only spot that really went right back where it belonged was the center screw but required a really BIG washer around the screw as the hole was pretty punched out.
I went through 3 kits and broke the back piece 3 times. Personally my completely restored truck will now get a custom headliner, as I don't Believe anyone I know or myself can accomplish installing these new kits successfully.
I have been doing automotive upholstery since 1980. I have installed similar type headliners and they are a real pain. I loved how you improvised and actually made it look great. Thank God for kind people that are practical. I have always been fortunate to have people that are understanding when things go sideways. I consider myself a good everyday upholsterer. I avoid show cars at all costs. Literally more trouble than they are worth to me. I would rather repair a farmers truck! God bless.
The 1965 Ford F250 custom cab caribbean turquoise is the best looking truck Ford ever made in my humble opinion. Same truck my dad had and shared many wonderful childhood memories going to camp or Grandma's house. My life quest is to find one just like it. I distinctly remember the cardboard headliner as there was a big spider hanging from its web dangling behind my dad's head as we drove the 2 hour trip home one starry night and I never took my eyes off it..lol.
I am nearly finished restoring a 1965 F100 300 c.i. Inline 6, 4 speed, with Dana 60.2, 3.54 rear end. Respond if you are really interested in owning one of these trucks.
@Not Me I just bought a tractor so my dream will have to wait a while longer. My dream rig is a 1965 F250 custom cab camper special caribbean turquoise color code...would like to see pics of your resto..what's your email
Thanks for this video. It helped a lot!
Fast and easy these are not. Destroyed the one I bought. I'm thinking of trying the ABS units...or just leaving the inside naked.
Ewwwwww!! Is right…Avoiding the mouse turds. 😂
Do you have square cut out measurements for arm rest doors on 1960f100
Can u tell what the name of the metal tucking tool u use
Thank you !
They make the ABS plastic versions now. I’d lose my mind over the cardboard stuff. I would definitely break it.
What about a matte spray sealer to help keep
It from crumbling over time in weak areas where there are creases, small cracks, or rubbed areas? Thoughts Anyone?
I took mine to the upholstery shop and he broke 2 of them so we just went a different way lol.
Do you ever install sound dampening material above a headliner, and if so do you attach it to the liner or the metal roof? Thanks. Helpful video.
Looks like a 2 man job.
Salut je pourrais savoir où trouver un ciel de toit ?
Excellent!!!
could this headliner be used to make a starlight headliner?
I think you could but Idk if there's room for that in a truck like this
@@samsupholstery8499 oh OK thank you!
