Now that my V8 is on the road, I'm shaking out some bugs and have  an
interesting one for you.  At highway speed, with the windows rolled  down,
the first two sections of my headliner (between the front two bows)  filled
up with air.  At first it was minor, but it eventually the  bulge pushed down
to the top of my head and pulled the liner away from  under the trim at the
top of the windshield.  Fortunately I hadn't  glued this area.  I am not
using visors and I have a windshield  mounted mirror.  Is this air behind the
headliner, or negative  pressure caused by the windows being down? If its
behind the headliner,  where is this air coming from and are there any steps
I can take prior to  glueing the liner in  place?

Seems like it would have to be coming from the top of the  windshield....or 
up the posts on the sides?
 
strange indeed!
