Headliner

Post by VintageSpeed » Wed Dec 13, 2023 9:44 am

Hello Marina men and women

I just got my Christmas present early. A '73 Marina Coupe from 1st owner. It needs upholstery and left side wing but seems a good project for restoration.

I see East Kent trim is offering headliner for Marinas but they state it's only for 4d. Has someone compared what's the difference between coupe and sedan headliner and could this be fitted to a coupe with minor adjustment?

looks like a nice tidy motor complete with opening rear side windows , and front quarter lights.

The headlinings are significantly different as the sloping rear window makes the roofline slightly shorter and the C pillar is obviously a different shape of course. It might be worth finding a local trimmer to make one up using your existing headlining as a pattern.

Hi. Thanks for info. Then I will forget this option and send the headliner with seats to a local professional.¨ :thumbup:
