    She got itchy one day and decided to make a headliner. A plaid headliner!! It looks awesome. Her next project is door trim panels with plaid inserts (natch). I'm pretty lucky to have her. She's good lookin', talented and puts up with my addiction. Oh yeah, she gave birth to the tow short chicks that live in my house too!

    That's pretty cool, does it just use the regular headliner bows?

    Yep. That with the magical combo of peel'n'stick velcro and a hot glue gun keeps it in place. 80* at 100mph with the windows down and it didn't move a lick. She done good. I'm proud of her.

    I also tied it to the rear window frame with .023 mig wire. She did really good. Hope the door panels work out.

    I'm not sure why you are showing us photos of the headliner. We would rather see photos of HER.

    That 100 MPH is no BS either. Hot Rod To Hell and I in our "hot rods" were having a hard time keeping up with that old shoebox on the way to Sins of Steel. Looks good Pete.

    Uh no. She's a good looking blonde in a ****py old Ford. I think Brian Setzter did a song about this type......somethin bout a peroxide blonde in a hopped up model Ford.
