You need to take that gal out for a nice dinner. The headliner is not an easy project. And you have to have good knee pads.Finally caught a couple of free days to get back on the Willys project. The upholstery shop (AKA my wife) dropped by to help with first pass on headliner installation.

Plan is to trim it out with vinyl strips above windows.
Indeed.You need to take that gal out for a nice dinner. The headliner is not an easy project. And you have to have good knee pads.
Yes inner is rotted a bit. Which is convenient for inserting butt weld clamps…Don’t put lipstick on a pig…
I had to rebuild a couple side panels. They rust where the inner cowel meats, always. I made a plywood inner jig, left/right. Then clamp a larger sheet metal piece anll around and start pounding to shape. You can patch on the flat sections not he where they meet. The inner cowel is probably rusted also but must connect to the outer panel at the edges for support of the entire panel. Touchy place to work. Inner cowels available at KW.
The wagon project has been on hold for the past couple of months while we relocate to Colorado. North of Fort Collins.The repro inner wheel wells are nice. I’d say well worth the $110. each, considering the ugly and painful alternatives.
Still a little welding and trimming to do on outer arch.
