I’m thankfully armed with nice paper editions of the 59-64 “Body Parts Catalog” , Volumes 1&2 of the 59-61 “Shop Manual” and the 59-60 “Chassis Parts Catalog”. One would think one could find mentions of the windlace, as a part, or in a replacement procedure...anything.
The only mention of this 8-letter word is in the Body Parts Catalog, drawn in Plate 21-2 for my F body, item “D”. If folks could direct me to any other spot that mentions part number and it’s color I’d be oh so grateful! Same thing with procedure - I figure the headliner replacement (Vol2, Body-General, pg 24) would have talked about it, but nope.
As it turns out the factory material is simply too far-gone to save - frail from within and from outside, so I have 27 feet on order from S-I in “Taupe”.
I’m absolutely wanting to save the original headliner so I have a question around the door frame portions of the Lark. With the rear qtr trim panels off, it’s fairly obvious how it mounts and suspect the same is true at the footwell kickpanels.
Does anyone have advice or photos that describe how the windlace and headliner are pinched together around the door? Is there a flexible tooth rail that I bend carefully back and tap back down, etc?
Thanks as always in advance.
