Found an easy way to install the headliner.

Got a free roll of aluminum sheet used in plants to cover pipe. Thin .020 but I doubled it up and it works great.

I hate working over head!

Another project .... another therapy session

Question:  That cool looking weld stitching I see and have seen on others.....  Is that actually holing the panels together or are they welded more solid from the back?

Watched your videos and subscribed!!  I can see how the stitched welds work now. 

I also figured out where I am falling short on my hot rod building and guitar playing both.  I need an assistant like Red!!

Re: 64 Falcon Rat Rod - You've got to have heart!

I've been pulling wrenches since I was old enough to hold one. Used to take all my toys apart to see how they work , that is, after I got bored at playing with them.

You need some ,"intelligence" to build stuff but what you really need the most is HEART! I've found that you can do ANYTHING you want if you have enough heart in it!

If you need to know something YouTube has the info. Learn how to research the web and get answers! Back in the day we had to depend on books and personal training (glad my big brother was a mechanic)!

Here's some of the things I've built in the last 7 years.

You have been busy the past 7 years, alot of cool projects. What is the story with the red dodge ram dually? I noticed the big truck wheels.

Looks like I posted wrong (Duhh!!)
 I was wondering about the red ram dually with the big truck wheels. Can you provide any info on that build? Very cool by the way.
