Re: roof lining
I've done it on two cars now, my brother's buick century t-type, and later, his regal t-type. We went to Ben Franklin(any craft store with fabric will work), and we bought 2 or 3 square yards(can't remember). We just picked out something that was the most felt like and matched the gray interior the best. With his car, you could pull out the whole shell of the roof liner. We pulled it out and took off the old liner, trying to leave as much foam backing on the shell as possible. Then we cut the fabric to fit, and hot glued it in. The second time, it worked better leaving just a tiny bit of slack all around, then altering it once the shell was back in place.

Re: roof lining
you know what works amazing for that type of problem, is that double sided tape that is used for outdoor carpets and other materials, my buddies ceiling material was falling in and i used that to fix it and it worked great and you dont get the clumps of glue that a hot glue gun will give you.<P> lata
