    Hell yes! They're traditional as can be. I Put one in my 33 mopar and it was a real hit . Kids thought it was "awesome" and old guys remembered them fondly.
    Everyones so afraid of someone dissing their car that they wont do stuff like fuzzy headliners. I dont get it.

    Nothing like zebra or anything but I have seen a couple that looked pretty cool. Probably won't do it but I was just wondering if anyone does it anymore.

    I sure hope not!:D

    I bought a 40 Willys 4 dr with an angora hair headliner that freaked me out when I sat in the seat. I hate anything in my hair. I really freaked out when I ripped it out and found the huge mouse nest!!

    At 28 degrees this morning, I would have taken some "fur" to keep me warm in the '59. Take note that it's got no door panels, no carpet, no weather stripping, holes in the floor.....and the original owner didn't opt for a heater. Brrrrrrrr.

    But hell yeah, fur that liner and don't forget your organ pipes in the package tray!

    Haha - had to laugh at this one, Poorboy Chris put a 'monkey fur' headliner in his chopped Chevy. It sat outside with no gl*** for a while and the next time he drove it BIG *** spiders fell all over his pompadour.

    When I read the thread ***le, I thought of ZZ Top.......as far as I know, they're still headliners, and always will be.......
     
  27. Is there anyone close to Kerry that can go over and slap some sense into his head?
    Or sell him a 70's hippy van.

    My coupe had a leopard pattern headliner in it when I bought it in 1965. Didn't take long to remove it and run in early steel. Hot but I was kool in 65.
    Yes in the late 60's it had red Zodiac vinyl bucket seats trimmed in black but still no headliner. I lived in Reno then. In the 70's I installed a dark blue mohair headliner and trim with a bright iridescent nylon blue inserts. The ladies loved it and won several awards with that in it. Today it is all done in dark gray vinyl. Tomorrow????

    When I saw fuzzy headliner, my first thought was the "Space Herpie". . . but actually thinking back, I don't think it had a fuzzy headliner, just fuzzy everything else! :D
