headliner question

Yep, player1up is right. My '73 Duster, '74 Dart Sport, and '76 Duster all had that fiberboard headliner. Consider yourself very lucky if it is in good condition. Most of them have deterioriated over the years. They aren't extremely difficult to remove or replace, but they are VERY FRAGILE after all this time cooking with the sheet metal roof so close.

If you decide to remove it, beware of the nasty insulation the factory installed above it. It was some sort of fiberous material that typically turns to dust. Once you drop the headliner down a bit, you'll see what I mean. The insulation material is very friable (powdery when handled). I would suggest having a shop vac nearby and suck up the stuff as it is exposed. It's like trying to pick up a charcoal briquette that has turned to ash, but stayed together.

Let us know if you plan to tackle the job, there are a few more pointers you should know.
