RE: IML: '61 Roof trim removal



You are lucky to have a chromed trim  - me not.   Please check my headliner at 

www.movit.de/htm/impint.htm

there is only a one inch shadow line between headliner and body- simply and perfect done

 

The man who does the job, must be very experienced, because he has only on try .. to fix the headliner

 

So get enough material in the case You need to redo it …

Subject: IML: '61 Roof trim removal

 

Hi all,

 

This winter's project is to get my '61 LeBaron re-upholstered. I was recently in Portland where I visited SMS and picked out some suitable materials. If anyone is thinking of going, it is a fantastic experience. There are thousands of rolls of material to choose from and the guys who work there are a pleasure to deal with. There is no substitute for being there and comparing the different materials directly.

 

Now the reason for this message. Before I get the headlining replaced, I want to remove the chrome roof trim ans s/s panels. the trim will be re-chromed and the dinks in the panels  rolled flat and polished. Any rust underneath will be treated at the same time.

 

I followed the recent thread about removing the s/s panels with interest but does anyone know the sequence for removing the surrounding trim? For example, do I have to lift the s/s trim above the windshield first? If so, how does it come off? Are there any pitfalls which a little foreknowledge would avoid?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Best wishes,

 

Tony V.
