HEADLINING-CLOTH AND VINYL COATED
ALL STYLES-EXCEPT "55 AND 6 5 " STATION WAGONS
DESCRIPTION
The headlining assembly is formed to the contour
of the roof panel by concealed listing wires. The
listing wires are retained to the headlining by
listing wire pockets which are part of the head-
lining assembly.
Depending upon the body type and style, the listing
wires are attached to the side roof rails by either
inserting wires directly into holes in side rail or
into a clip which is screwed into the side rail.
(See View "A and B" in Fig. 11-1.)
On certain styles, the listing wires are further
attached to the roof panel by tabs on the front to
rear longitudinal roof bow.
(See View "D» in
Fig. 11-1.)
When pinchweld finishing lace is used at the wind-
shield and back window or back body opening, the
headlining is attached by means of cement at those
areas.
Where garnish moldings are utilized the headlining
is tacked or stapled in addition to being cemented
at the windshield and back window or back body
opening (View "E", Fig. 11-1 and Fig. 11-2).
The headlining is retained along the side roof rails
by cementing or the use of a pronged retainer.
Depending upon the style, garnish moldings or
pinchweld finishing lace is also used to assist in
retaining the headlining. The side roof rail garnish
moldings are secured to the pinchweld flange by
clips that are located in the molding. (See Figs.
11-3 and 11-4.)
On styles where a upper quarter trim panel is
utilized, the headlining is tacked or stapled to a
trim stick in the roof extension area (See Fig.
11-2). The upper quarter trim is retained by clips
(See Fig. 11-2). On " E " Body Styles the upper
quarter trim is further retained by cementing the
forward edge to the side roof rail. On styles where
the headlining covers the entire roof extension
area, the headlining is retained along the rear
compartment shelf by a pronged retainer (See
Fig. 11-5).
