    I have a 1958 Ford Country Sedan wagon with the original hardboard headline. It needs replacing, but so far I am unable to find any NOS or reproduction panels.

    Does anyone have any idea of where I could look? Any clue would be most appreciated.

    Thanks

    Thank you for your reply. I saw a 1959 wagon this summer and it had the same exact hardboard material headliner. I am not sure how cloth would be installed, as I don't see any place to attach the cloth to above the windows. Please tell me how you did that.

    Many thanks!

    "i do have the 59 boards but dont know if they are the same"

    I think the 1959 boards are the same or very close. I would like to purchase yours with the trim that went inbetween each piece if you are willing to part with them. I am missing the rearmost one at the liftup back window.

    Thanks

    Have you contacted SMS, they have deck vinyl, they may have the headliner material
