Re: Headliner For 1972 Suburban 4X4

Great write up! Write ups like yours are one of the reasons this place is so great. Thank you for taking the time to post it.

You're choice of using the different materials was spot on. The wood's coloring works great with your blue interior.

Those cross pieces must have been the trickiest to cut to length. If you didn't have help that's a lot of crawling in and out.

Did you use the same finishes on the Hemlock pieces and the cross pieces? It may be how the grain reflects the light but, the cross pieces almost look like they are a darker color.

It looks like you cut the Hemlock pieces somewhat short in the front. Was that for clearance so the visors didn't rub them?

Again. Great Job! I'm pretty sure you've already inspired some people.
