Headliner

What is the recommendation on a headliner for these trucks? I can get the material local if the backer board is sold bare, or would like just a black cloth style liner. Who/what/where/etc??

I like these but you pay a little for them , but you could cover the original style in about anything you want , if I haven't used this I would have used a fake leather style an glued it to the board


And this site has some good products but never used them personally

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...eadliner+cheapDo you see the blue line with User CP, Albums, FAQ? See the SEARCH on that line?
It has a drop down search menu arrow, go to the "Advanced Search" option, top left side (search block) type in there what you are looking for and then go to the lower right column and highlight 73-79 forum. Select it and then you will have a detailed search just in the 73-79 forums.

Ah I'd bet a 6pk the above one will fit a 78/79 full size Bronco. The headliners between a 73-79 truck and a 78/79 Bronco are the same AFAIK.

Above says it will NOT fit a Bronco... huh?

LMC same same but does not say it will not fit a Bronco. Huh? https://www.lmctruck.com/1973-79-for...lt-in-speakers

I'm fairly certain they are the same headliner. I have a 78 Bronco and a 77 F100 and I'd say at a glance they look identical. I'd have to measure them sometime to be 100%.

The 78/79 Bronco's use a smaller headliner than the trucks!! The width's are the same but the length's are a few inches shorter for the Bronco's.
