About 20 years ago, when I was looking for the perforated board headliner for my 1958 Fury, I noticed that the station wagons and some vans in the sixties and possiby seventies had the same headliner held in place by the same plastic ceiling strips, only the strips ran across and weren't the same length. Chrysler is notorious for using existing technology and not reinventing the wheel. (Like the door hinges and handles on my 68 Road Runner are the same as my 78 Warlock pickup truck and were used until the truck was redesigned in 1993.) Any way, with some research, maybe you could expand the market to make this economically feasible. Just a thought.

He wants to know if the strips for the '57-'58, that we are looking into reproducing, were used for the '59s as well? If so, he has an interest in the repro project.
