-----------------------------
The first automobiles in the late 40s, 50s until the 70s had this kind of liners for their roof interiors. The classic VW beetle is one of this range.
I have considered it important to refresh these upholstery techniques because by this time there are car restorers that love these vintage cars.
A mock-up is of great help to understand the how-to process.
Most of the car owners want the car trimmer to replicate the same OEM design. What to do if we do not have the old headliner pattern. In a part of this video I have given the clue to pattern the panels from scratch.
As we can see the insulation padding helps to keep the rods in place making the patterning process easier. Otherwise it would be a frustrating moment.
Let's not forget the use of thin materials that could be vinyl, fabric or leather. If we use a heavy material there is a risk of headliner hanging.
Due to the car's movement and weight of the liner material, the steel rods turn over upside down. Harder rods would be the solution to avoid this issue.
A tip to keep the rods and headliner itself in place while the assembling process is the use of 2 'tensioners' in the front part and two in the rear on both sides.
These 'tensioners' are made of thin wires. One end is fastened to a little hole in the frame. The other end is fastened to the rod which is inside the listing or sleeve.
I want to underline that this video is a basic one that would take us to understand much better how to tackle a real headliner on a car.
I want to devote this video to all my UA-cam followers and unfollowers who are eager to learn this marvelous artcraft!

muchísimas gracias por compartir tan maravilloso trabajo maestro
know you’ve done well when it looks expensive, solid craftsmanship ❤️
😂 love the First note given “we should realize most car roof is not even” been burned by that before
Nice instruction as always, thank you.
Wish I had YT back in the day....I had to make one out of nothing for a fire damaged VW Bettle (in another lifetime) was supplied another complete interior from a wreck (Carpets, Seats, Door panels) but nobody could supply the headlining, I assumed most were in too poor condition once removed.
Dam difficult and I had to fit each panel, came out awesome like a factory new one. Couldn't charge all the hours, took me about 2 days including putting windows back in etc.
Very rewarding job, left the trade shortly after but marvel at your attention to detail and instruction.

Recently picked up a pfaff 1245 706/47 like the one you have many videos on and have used your videos to get it tuned up. Looking to start messing around with some automotive upholstery for my own and family cars. What would you say are the most important presser feet to own to do most basic upholstery work?
The most basic presser foot is: www.amazon.com.mx/PFAFF-INDUSTRIAL-PRESSER-conjunto-40474-5/dp/B0773HLZST
The others also important are:

i have a question, what leather would be best for wrapping the exterior of a car weather wise, would leather hold up ok or would it be best to use the same vinyl as the traditional vinyl top cars of the 70's - 80's etc
what i'm wanting is that softer skin like feel rather than the hard vinyl
background, i'm a panel beater and custom car restorer so bodyworking the exterior to accommodate the leather wont be a problem, ie making and fitments fit the thicker surface and making door gaps bigger pre wrapping
We should start under the premise that a top roof would be directly exposed to the sunrays, rain, dust, etc.
Regular top roof covers are made in vinyl material.
Regarding your question I answer yes it is possible the use of leather material, provided it fulfills the requisites of exterior use.
I would advise a marine leather or at least automotive leather if the car would not be exposed to the sunrays for so long.
I think the best would be to get some direct assistance from a leather supplier.
Buenas tardes maestro,me gusta mucho el vídeo muy instructivo siempre se mucho nivel, gracias, quisiera hacerle una consulta,no es x el vídeo, suelo TENER CLIENTES QUE SON ORTODOXOS CON SUS AUTOS Y MAS CUANDO ESTOS YA SON CLASICOS ,Y ESTOY HACIENDO UN CHEVROLET SERIE 2"CHEVY"QUE EL TAPIZADO ES EN UNA TELA LLAMADA OJO DE PERDIZ,Y DISCULPE SI MOLESTA LO Q QUIERO PREGUNTAR,LA TELA EN ARGENTINA NO LA CONSIGO,Y ME GUSTARIA SABER SI USTED SABRÍA DECIRME SI SE CONSIGUE,LA TELA ES NEGRA Y BLANCA, CUADRITOS CHIQUITOS,desde ya gracias y disculpe la ok
Yo estoy localizado en Mexico. Con suerte Ud podría conseguir la tela original en Estados Unidos.
Es asunto que investigue y contacte las páginas web donde mestran y venden estas telas originales para la marca Chevrolet.
Por ejemplo:
oemautofabric.com/product-category/auto-cloths/chevy/1960s-chevy/
smsautofabrics.com/collections/cloth
Disculpe no poder ayudar mas. Con suerte consigue la tela original con estos proveedores.
Mil gracias,algo así me habían dicho,de conseguirlo x esos lados,y me dijeron que x ahí ya no hay pero soy insistente con todo lo q a la tapicería se refiere y me acordé de usted, abrazo colega y gracias
very informative. What is the name of the tool used to straighten fabric when sewing, similar to pliers?

Здравствуйте! Вы в какой стране и в каком городе? Можно ли у вас учиться offline?
В Мексике он
where can you buy a staple gun like yours ? thx.
Hopefully, this trade mark:ua-cam.com/video/X2OHhdZVyFc/v-deo.htmlsi=ma7qf_tz7Ckn4bsm&t=4
I bought mine in Mexico: www.acegrapasfifa.com.mx/producto.php?p=107
I first was using the Arrow brand, but too weak.
Yes
Did you reverse some of the panels on purpose? It looks like 2 of the panels are opposite of the others as the shading looks different. But at the end of the video, it all looks the same.
Yes, you are right. The fabric hair of all the panels should comb in the same direction. I used some scraps of fabric and I did not care so much about it as it is just a small mock-up.
@@Cechaflo ahhh. Ok. I know you're attention to detail is over the top so I was a little confused! 😂
It still looks absolutely amazing. Wish I had your patience. But I don't do quite as fancy type of work as you either. Mostly fishing boats that just need to be functional.
Thanks for your keen eye! Velvets, velours, Alcantaras, and suedes should comb in the same direction to get the same shade.
