tmi and sewfine both have good quality products. many guys don't run a headliner. i opted for a quieter ride and finished look though (personal choice). i had a local guy use modern headliner material (1/4" foam type) to custom make mine and he did a custom ragtop too. i have a choptop, so it was going to be custom work no matter what. i went with that material just because it matches my seat material. it ended up very nice.

I used a TMI velour headliner in my '70. The kit went in fairly easy, but it really pays to have several helping hands and to take your time. It took myself and my sister a full weekend (aprox. 20 hrs) to install that's not including glass back in. It is one of those jobs you really want to measure twice and cut once.
Cheers,
Dave
