Cinnamon 75 Duster \
There is water damage to the headliner on passenger side. Have not decided what i'm doing with that yet... I think it was getting in through the screw hole at the back corner of the canopy trim. Probably should have pulled it before i did the vinyl top, but i got lucky. First look it appeared to be a lot of rust, but its just surface. I just rubbed my fingers on it and it comes up pretty clean. Its a little heavier in some of the nooks and cranies like the area where the roof meets the quarter (the infamous factory bondo joint), but even that looks like it will clean up good. Some rust reformer should take care of what's left. I was surprised to see what actually maked up the headliner. At a glance it looks like thin vinyl over paper then a layer of foam over a thin cardboard base. Of coarse the years have turned it into a crispy critter with almost none of its original flexibility.
