Full length hood lining trade...

[cafiem]

I just unpacked my parcel from Eastern Auto Upholsters.
They have given me a full length panel van hoodlining in neutral (I think) it's sort of a bone colour and it should be the correct type/style.

I want either a dove grey or neutral ute headling and will swap the panel van one for it.
If anyone is interested PM me otherwise I'll get onto Eastern and get them to change it.
I presume it will be cheaper for someone to buy me a ute one to get a panel van one.

i cant believe what im reading thats a big mistake to make my hj sandman has slate trim but not sure what hoodlining it should have as it has a custom one in it at the mo if its the correct one for me i would buy it off you but i think someone closer to you should snap it up

Thanks mate, I was just hoping I could help someone out. I have already paid for the PV one I suppose and I guess eastern will just exchnage it and not make the cost adjustment anyway. If no-one want the deal I'll get onto eastern next week and get them to fix it. I would probably cut it but it's a completely different hanging setup.

Be careful what you ask for. Neutral headling in HJ is either Dove Grey (early) or Chamois (later production) BUT this is only on a HJ Kingswood and only with 18V or 45V trim. On a HJ Holden the headlining was Dove Grey, Chamois or Gazelle with no neutral option. When yours is built and what the trim is will determine what you are meant to have.

HK1837 It's early 1975 ( over in the shed couldn't be bothered walking over there ) It had some crappy material one so dont know what it had.
I haven't done anything about it yet been too busy back at work.

I spoke to Eastern yesterday and apprently they sent me the full length one by mistake. Apprently I was only charged for the ute one so I'll have to get it exchanged with them.
Sorry if I've mucked anyone around.

glad it all worked out for you restoring/modifying cars can be frustrating

We found eastern initially to be very frustrating but they do a tremendous job so can be forgiven. So when we bought the red ute I ordered the door trims knowing it can take 6 months and they Surprised me by doing them within three weeks
