Make sure the backing material for that fabric is the same as your original. I bought some of what I thought was the same material gtom SMS for my gramma's 75 Firebird and it turned out what they sold me was the material used for making welting - a non stretchable canvas-backed vinyl instead of the stretchable fabric backed material used in the rest of the seat material.

I will order a headliner (complete not just the material) do I need to worry?

No need to worry - What Steve is mentioning - also happened to me once....but this was a long time ago. I have had no problems since. They have resolved this problem.

Got it.

Thx

Something else to consider Ryan is the vinyl I received had been painted rather than dyed. My trimmer discovered this when he went to wipe off some excess glue from the vinyl and the paint went with it. Not sure if this is the case with everything?

I will check on that Damien.

Thanks for the tip, I appreciate feedback. ROOKIE HERE!!!

Turns out Paul Martin/Canuck is the nicest muscle car guy going!!

He sent me a 1969 Oldsmobile starter kit.
Hose clamps, tubes (I don't know where they go but I really like them) front brake drums (non finned) a jack hook, and front turn signals.

I think he wanted the 69 stuff out of the way for the seventies W-Machine build area:-)

THANK YOU PAUL!!!

Ryan, the tubes are for the valve cover breather to air filter, 1970 used them ,Not sure about 69, The drums are for the rear, and that style was used up until 1970 on many w machines.

Perfect, looking forward to using them, on the rear (typed before thinking)

Ryan

Thanks again!!
