51 R18 Rebuild
the old trucker:
I thank you for the update on this matter Mr. Paulson. I am never too old to learn something new & I have learned alot since coming here.
dpaulson:
Since I used bucket seats from a 4 door truck which do not fold ahead to ease entry to the back, I mad a little hideaway step to help passengers. It will be built into the seat when I get to that part.
Some pic of the headliner installation.
I used the holes that were for the previous headliner. They were not factory holes as it looked like the guy used a hammer and a punch. I used stainless screws to screw the 3/4 x 1-1/2 oak strips on. I used 1/4 G1S fir plywood that I covered with headliner material and screwed up to the oak strips. I'm happy with the way it turned out.
the old trucker:
Looks great so far, what kind of material did you use for headliner ?? OT.
dpaulson:
It's a vinyl of some type. I purchased it off the internet from a company in the US. It was under automotive headliner section.
the old trucker:
In the second last pic showing your upholstery, I noticed your dash looked like it is done. Any pics of it ? Mike (57 rebuild) will soon be at his & wanted to see a few different styles.
OT.
