Title: Wagon Hoodlining in Van
Post by: lestump66 on June 19, 2014, 01:31:38 PM
Hi All,
I am getting close to being ready to install the hoodlining in my van and need to drill the holes for the hoodlining bows in the rear of the van. I have a standard wagon pattern hoodlining ready to go and a set of bows. Can anyone tell me the spacing or distance between the holes from front to back? How did Holden finish the hoodlining at the tailgate? Does anyone have any photos and/or some reference? Any help greatly appreciated. Stump

G'day Stump, I have some pics of my hoodlining in my post - "Finally under way again"

Cheers Jox
Good looking wagon :o) did your wagon have the saw-tooth trim right around the roof? is this stuff available from anywhere? I have look but to no avail

Thanks Stump, I am happy with it and it drives really well  ;D ;D ;D

Yep, wagon had the teeth all the way around.  I would guess that you need to find a wagon for wrecking and see if you can get the whole teeth frame from it cos I am not sure whether you can buy the stuff or not.

May be worth messaging stinky on this forum - he is a first class motor trimmer and may be able to steer you in the right direction.

Cheers, Graeme
