I decided to completely freshen my low mileage Packard Hawk - engine, paint, upholstery. Engine and paint almost done. The headliner was perfect, but after many years, the color was perhaps a little different. I had a new one made up and the measurements are not quite the same. It is vinyl as original - I'm wondering how much stretch there will be and whether the headliner I've had made up is close enough. There are basically 6 segments from front to back. The first and last ones don't matter to much as long as there is enough. Near as I can tell, the measurements of both are:
Number 5 segment does have a little narrowing at the sides. Will the replacement fit????

Replacement | 10 | 10 | 12 | 11 | 8 3/4 | 10 5/16 |
