The closest match I found was at https://smsautofabrics.com/pages/headliners.  I used Whipcord.

The headlining in my 72TC looked very similar.

It was not closely glued to the front next to the screen, there was about 422 with no glue, as presumably it would leave creases if fitted close up into that curve.

  4129r. Thanks for taking point on this task.
 
   I soon will be taking on this battle. What type glue are you using? I have test pieces that have all failed holding in the heat.

I used 3M's headliner adhesive (38808), and it's held up for the past two years now.  I used it for nearly all the interior pieces that needed to be glued.  But, I'm sure it gets hotter in Florida then it does here in Vancouver.
