winabbey, are you thinking of getting some linings made up?

Not me, but a colleague who wishes to remain anonymous at the moment is investigating. The samples I posted earlier are from him. I think he is weighing up costs, etc. The last I heard he would have to charge something like $800 for a full headlining piece of material.

Type 1

Your headlining pattern looks like what is called 'moon crater' (don't think that is its proper title). I think it was a lining for many Fords and it is commonly available.

I realise it is nice to get close to original in these things, but it is surprising how often you never look at the headlining in your car, or anyone else's.

I am certainly keen to buy some more MK1 roof lining material. I found some NOS stuff, and by the time it was coloured and made it well exceeded $1500
I am always worred that something will happen to it
