    What are you doing to the front of the headliner when you are measuring 18.5" and cutting?

  • @RJLM330
    @RJLM330 Рік тому +2

    Thanks for this valuable info and perfect timing even though I’m a long way off from this step. I have been stressing about it for many years But where do you get the rubber parts?

    • @deang5991
      @deang5991 Рік тому

      I got my stuff from Chucks Convertibles

  • @argimiromalave3216
    @argimiromalave3216 Рік тому

    I have two offers of all missing parts, including canvas, headliner, etc., since I only have the structure. One from chuck and the other one from M &T manufacturing. Any recommendations will be welcome

    New vert to me. A 65. My first vert. Does anyone know if the headliner along both sides from front to rear get mounted to the frame somehow? Or are they loose and have to be loose to allow the top to fold open?

    Don’t think I would be able to install a convertible top.

      This is definitely a job for a Professional in my opinion.

    • @deang5991

      I think it’s about $2500 in labor I saved by DIY. if I can do it anyone can. My day job has zero to do with cars or mechanics.
