Originally these cars had an insulator sheet between the headliner and the
roof panel it was made from a heavy duty paper sack type of thing stuffed
with cotton/wool waste type of material and appeared to be glued to the
metal roof panel .Without it you will get enough water condensation to ruin
your new headliner so you should replace the insulation .
Here in England I can buy a sort of sacking based material that is about a
half inch or less thick and after priming the metal roof panel inside with
an anti rust paint (I use a red lead based compound ) I cut the material to
fit , taking care to leave a clear area around the domelight fitting, I
glue it in with an impact glue that will not be affected by heat . I also
suggest that the area's around the very edge of the inside of your roof is
treated with a non setting rust proofer as no paint seems to be on this
area and rust will eventually work its way to the outside of your roof
panel just above the rain gutter area.

I just opened the box with my new headliner. I will be attempting to
install this weekend. I put the new carpet down last night and it is
comming along. The headliner looks nice. I will let you all know if it is
correct. The price was good. The company is from Los Angeles Ca,
(Alexander Company Inc) 323-257-8266. Should I be putting in any type of
insulation between the headliner and roof?
