Didnt find anything on a quick search so , how do you fasten the inside panels on the doors ?Guess I better identify the car first 34 master sedan ( DA) Nails or screws would be so obvious ,but the parts show no sign of clips or anything . My car was partly torn apart when I bought it ,it had sat for 30 years in a garage while the owner was gonna restore it .The interior was mostly gutted so its been a challenge.

One more thing ,the headliner . I know it was held up with wires and I found some solid steel/plastic coated wire that wont rust and stain the cloth . But would it be easier to use the heavy brown cardboard on the roof and then glue the fabric on ? I'm not building a show car , just trying to keep it as close to original as possible ,except the seat belts and a stereo in the glove box . Ivan

The door panels on my 38 were held on with nails as well. The upholsterer changed it over to spring clips to make future removal and re-install easier if necessary.
