QUOTE(URY914 @ Jan 6 2024, 05:11 PM)  Try JB Weld. It is fiberglass from the era. Should be able to bond it back together. Need the part completely clean, and I would remove the felted headliner to see what is really going on. What is the tan material behind the hole? They sell small fiberglass kits if you want a broader repair. I used to fix sailboats by grinding away to clean resin and glass and then replace what I took away with progressively wider pieces of glass fabric. Then grind flush with sand paper. |
