Buick Wildcat Original Headliner

[SMohr]

Hi All,

I have a 1964 Wildcat, 2dr Coupe, 401, Auto-trans (just like the one you see on the Muscle car club web site red body and white top). I'm trying to determine what is the original headliner. Currently, the headliner is all Light-Grey cloth material and the visors are a combination of the same material with matching vinyl. The headliner board consists of 5 pieces and 4 ribs and 2 side pieces. I have contacted SMS and they sent me 3 samples stating the samples are ORIGNAL, they are black vinyl with a pattern. So, can someone help me out and help me determine what is the original headliner color and material used for my 64 Wildcat 2 door coupe. Cloth or Vinyl???

Thanks

Steve

In 1964, there were two trim levels in Wildcats, those with the upgrade (Custom) trim had the type of headliner and visors you describe. I don't know if yours is original but it probably is. The vinyl on the sunvisors should match the interior color and the cloth should be close to that too.
