Please Note:
Many used items in our picture(s) have been cleaned and/or bead blasted prior to being photographed to show condition and detail. The item you receive, in most circumstances, will be pulled from the donor car and shipped to you without being cleaned. We do not retake pictures each time a used item sells. Pictures are a good indicator of what you will receive, but not all used parts age the same. On high dollar parts, email us and we can send a few pictures of the actual part available.
"Core" Items: If we use the word "Core" in the title of the product, the item has been deemed rebuildable, but has not been rebuilt. The item you receive, in most circumstances, will be pulled from the donor car and shipped to you without being cleaned.
Product Condition Grades
Below is a general description of what the criteria is for our product condition grades. These are generalizations that are intended to give you an idea of the condition of the product at a quick glance. Because different parts degrade at different rates, there are variances in what the letters represent, please see the products description for details about the condition of any particular product.
A = Excellent / Above Average
B = Average / Some flaws / Good to Excellent Driver Quality
C = Obvious flaws / Poor to Average Driver Quality
D, E, F = Worse, Worser, Worsest
Contrary to what you might think at first glance, the support rods used in 1967 - 1968 Cougar headliners are not the same front to back. Each of the rods is bowed to a different curve. To replace a headliner and make it look right, you must keep the rods in the same order as they came out of the original headliner. To help you do this, Lincoln-Mercury coded each rod with a color applied to each end. From front to rear, the 1967 - 1968 color codes of the headliner rods are:
- None (this is the only round rod)
- Red
- White
- Brown
Once installed in the car, each rod should be about the same distance from the roof as the other rods.
WCCC marks the bows with a sharpie pen or spray paint, 1 hash mark, 2 hash marks, etc. starting from the front of the car.
This listing is for a good used set of four headliner bows taken from a parts car. They will not be heavily rusted or bent. The anchor wires measure 5-9/16" for 67-68. Anchor wires are sold separately and are in limited quantities.
*NOTE* The four bows and two anchor clips shown are from a 1968 Cougar. You do not have to purchase anchor clips, you can just take note of the lengths we have listed here and use a zip tie or wire tie to anchor the rear bow to the support just above the rear window.
Fits:
- 1967 Mercury Cougar
- 1968 Mercury Cougar
