I have a near perfect headliner and frame from a 67 Cooper S. I'm being anal though and hoarding it....just in case....one day!

They did it by gluing the normal headliner foam fabric to the roof and trimming the edges really well.
I tried this with another car and had lumpy success. I feel like this car was done professionally by someone that knew how to work the material and glue to avoid wrinkles. Thre are some Pockets to somewhat work around in the roof metal that makes this job easy or hard.
For an OEM Frame:
in florida= check with Dion at DJ's Mini parts = Wesley chapel Florida. For a Mk 1 Frame. closer to you.
Then trimming a Mk 1 frame is no FUN task . Streching and gluing the vinyl to it.
Attached pics of my roof for 'refrence"
Also adds 2 inches of headroom!

PS my last headliner install late type was $400. Cheapest I could find and I had removed all glass with new rods and headliner. Do what it takes to get a frame set. Post for someone heading your way who might bring one along.

Anything else I should be looking at- sound deadening, priming to prevent rust etc as part of this project? This is a driver- needs to look good but not great and no one is going to judge it except my wife.
Hints and hacks welcome so I don't have to reinvent the wheel....
