JJCarter Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Hey guys, I've got a 1941 Dodge D-19 that needs the headliner replaced. The one that is currently in there is complete but real ugly. Multiple colors. Big stains. I have no idea what happened to it or how it came to look like this, but I'm looking for a replacement one to put in there. Anyone have a color scheme or color chart showing what the original color choices where? Two problems with this: One, I can't figure out the color it originally was. Two, who do you recommend getting a replacement pre-sewn headliner from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Cocuzza Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 The headliner was most likely a tan/beige color. You can call SMS Auto Fabrics to see what they have. Probably most of the stains are from mice piss and water leaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryankazmer Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 matched the sunvisors originally I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28 Chrysler Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Under the dome light switch plate the color should be fairly unchanged, The headliner did match the sun-visors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63RedBrier Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 When you start pulling that old headliner down and out, please wear more than a dust mask! Work outside with all the windows and doors open, maybe (hepa) vacuum as you go. Proceed slowly, you will need the rods that are behind the seams to be unbent and reusable. Derust and paint the rods before resuse. You don't want rust to bleed into your new headliner. You will probably want to wirebrush and POR15 or paint the roof and maybe install a sound deadener while you are in there. Good luck with your project!

GARY F Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 And keep the rods in order front to back. They might be different lengths. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
