Hey guys...

I haven't been in to many verts, can you guys tell me if its normal to see the top frame of the covertible from inside the car? The 2-3 that I've been in I see all the metal and joints of the top. Is there any headliner or something to cover this? If so is it pricey?

Thanks!!

Joe

AFAIK, that's normal - there isnt any headliner (in mine atleast), but I have seen them with one.

Mine did not come with a headliner. If it had, I wouldn't have enough head room.

So they do come stock? I guess some people rip it out since it gets old or something?

I beleive some 93's came with a headlinder for an option. As a whole, verts did not and to see the frame work is normal. I bought a headliner kit from 50resto that I am having installed with the new top to cover the frame work up.

There may be a couple of Ford verts that came with a cover for the inside, but I've never seen them. Unless you have a car with an optional cover, or have a high end car, you are going to see the linkage.

When I bought my 93 it had headliner it it. I was suprised since I had never seen one in a vert before. It does clean the car up quite nicely though.

I had wondered if it might have also been omitted because it would add to the stack height when the top is down. Mine (early fox with the higher stacked height) sticks up high enough.

my '94 vert has a headliner and it came stock, my buddy's '90 LX vert has one as well, but when he bought the car, it had a newly replaced top, so maybe the previous owner chose to install the headliner when re-doing the top i would def. have one installed if my car didn't currently have one

I remember renting a LX vert(non-V8) after I had ordered my car, but before taking delivery, it had non-bucket seats & it had a headliner. I sat in it & thought to myself, "Crap, what have I done?!!?! I'm going to be driving a car I don't fit in for the next XX years????!?!!" I felt sick until I took delivery & realized that I did fit in it; whew!

I have a liner in my vert (87). It was easy to put in and didnt kill any head room (on my install at least). It also quiets the ride and kees your music inside. I love it. I plan to get one for my 92 vert. looks alot better too, thatn seeing the frame. Oh and it is a easy install.

I'm looking to put a headliner in mine also since it never had one and I hear that it helps with noise when the top is up. It almost seems noisier with the top up than down. Where is the best place to get a headliner?

I beleive they started to put them in for 92. You can put them in adn they do help with the road noise.

92's & 93's got the headliner. They are retrofittable to prior years.

Mine is a 91, guess that's why there's no liner.
