Hello All. Another update on my Revisited II. Since I last posted, I made an attempt at installing the headliner.....It did not turn out too bad, but for a few wrinkles. They tell me a heat gun or steaming will take these wrinkles out, but I am a bit hesitant as I was cautioned on too much heat. As well, I installed the exterior rear upper quarter trim, the rear window and its trim along with the inner and outer roof rail trim. I found out, today, that my front windshield is in at Auto City Classic/Classic Auto Glass which is located in Isanti, Minnesota.....so a road trip is in the near future. This company is about an hour north of Minneapolis. He just got shipment in, so he does have some Early A body front windshields in stock. Their Phone Number is as follows: 1-800-828-2212.....Denny is the contact name. Regarding the headliner, this is my first attempt at that job, so considering, I can accept the few wrinkles, unless someone has some tips on taking these wrinkles out....please!!! I would like to give a THANK YOU shout to 65 Dartman on his....."over the phone" tutorial on headliner installation. Don, as always, I do appreciate your time and for you taking me under your talented Mopar wing!!! The FSM has a color code on the front to back/back to front where each bow should go. A reminder, as a checklist is always in order....the dome light wiring needs to be installed prior to the headliner....my wife caught me on this one, otherwise I would not have that dome light in the car....thanks Mary Jo. On my rear window, I installed a used window as finding a repop or an NOS is more scarce than hen's teeth. I had two rear windows from my parts cars, and I chose the best of the two. There are a few scratches in the used window I chose.....I think Meecum and Barret Jackson call this "Patina." BTW, the front windshield was quite reasonable in price. As I commented, I installed the rear window chrome trim. So with that said, the outer trim goes on first, along with the window clips. This is an important sequence as if you install the window first, it will be impossible, or near impossible, to install the outer trim clips. There are a number of valuable videos on installing a windshield or rear window using a gasket seal using the "Rope Trick" on YouTube. They recommend using a 1/8 inch cotton rope, but I fund that using a 1/4 inch cotton close line rope works a bit better since it spreads the gasket gap a bit more making it easier to insert into/over the pinch weld. After the window is installed, then the inner trim can be installed upon the clips. I placed a slight bead of window sealant under the outer trim, and a slight bead under the outer window seal on the pinch weld. I read that it is best to use a sealant that remains, somewhat, flexible with regard to movement on the glass, and for the potential of removal at some time in the future. On the Headliner inner trim, this trim butts, parallel, to the roof rail where the roof rail, in what I used, was a seal using a closed cell foam. I found this easier as when I took the car apart, there was some sort of mastic where they glued/caulked the roof rail/window channel to the head. This mastic turned very hard, and I would question the sealing capability. As well, it was quite a mess to clean off. I bought a set of new inner screws from Classic Industries. This set is nicely marked and numbered, as to where they go regarding installation. I also installed the quarter trim and the package tray. The package tray came from Legendary. You will note that the interior quarter trim is painted yellow, and the roof rail headliner trim is painted matte black. I know this is not the OEM color scheme, but, when the doors were painted, it was much easier to paint yellow all the way around. That is about the update for now, but things are moving forward nicely. Again, I hope to be on the road by June 1st. Thank you for following along on my 65 Dodge Dart Revisited II build. As some of you know, I had a 65 Dart Charger back in 71.....right out of High School.....as a foolish kid, I destroyed the car within a few years....too much showing off, and too much fun with it....a price paid!!!! I am, very much, looking forward to getting behind the wheel of this great old Mopar once again. Best to all, and thanks to all of those who have helped me along the way. FABO is a wonderful place to be when putting a project like this together as there is a tremendous amount of knowledge and talent within our great members. Most, I found, are very very willing to share their skills and they are a tremendously great help in finding the parts which I needed to complete this great car. Thank you to all. I will post a few more pics on my recent work. sgrip65
