Get it done Mitch! I know my limits. A headliner would be something I would not try myself. Make the call..............write the check.

Same aerosol contact adhesive you use to glue down a Vinyl Top. Basically it is 3M yellow weatherstrip adhesive in a spray bomb. You spray both surfaces for it to adhere properly. Must use sparingly on the headliner, only around the outside edges. Same on the vehicle, only near the edges. To much Glue = Boo boo.....
 
Never knew that. I do know the bows are color coded for the proper spots. Thanks.

Oh yeahh??? Well try to find info on the colors and which one goes where. You are supposed to mark and number them when removed from the old headliner. Of course George did this.....But he had me confused for a few minutes. He had them marked 1,2.4,5,6...I'm like Where TF is #3 ??? Then I realized after further research that there are only 5 bows on a 68 Dart Hardtop....:rofl:

Was a cold morning. Decided to fire up pellet stove. So outside work is off until about now. Decided to start picking away at wiring.instead of buying sockets i opted to go pull the light harness out of a parts truck. Just cleaning it up and pulling unnecessary wires out. This will suit my need just fine.

Good thing the neighbor took the oak tree down. It was hollow inside. We have lived here 30 years and never noticed any bolts but it had been bolted together previously. Probably 50 years ago or so.
