Title: Ranch Wagon Interior Pictures
Post by: Raven Rider on 2014-09-30 21:26
Can someone please post up pictures of your finished interior esp. the headliner front and above the rear window/hatch.  I'm working on a new interior and I just got it back from upholstery and the the front and esp. the rear window/hatch corners are missing some thing.  thanks

just got back from a car show and looked at an Edsel wagon---It had a 2 piece metal trim piece that covers the end of the headliner---All the way home I am trying to think of something similar to find for my 57 wagon---Get to looking thru all my painted/clean interior pieces that I restored 4 years ago probably and lo and behold I find those 2 pieces--So there is a metal trim piece painted that covers that area

Thanks if you can post a picture I would appreciate it.  I will look in my manuals again to see if I can figure it out.

In the process of doing the headliner on my 57 Country Sedan right now and there is no evidence that it ever had a trim piece like the one shown in gasmans pictures. I wish I had that trim as it would solve the problem of how to terminate or finish the headliner at the back.
When I got my car it had a soft piece of trim back there with about 2 dozen staples in it and it was still falling off.

Pete...

Please keep us updated!

I have exactly the same situation on my country sedan.

I have figured I may have to make something out of vinyl stripping or something(?)

The trim in the pictures is steel.  Ranch Wagons aren't so rare that those pieces would be available.

I don't have the trim but I think I know where to get it.  I will keep you posted it will take me a few days.
