Derrico Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Good afternoon forum members, this is my first post. I am in the process of restoring a 1973 Mack R 685ST model. It has no headliner. Can someone tell me if a fiberglass headliner out of a 1967 Mack R607 would fit? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

880joe Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I'm not sure but didn't the plus 3 inch cab come out in 73? If so wouldn't the headliner be different? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 73 was a split year. We had them both ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 I need to measure for the plus three. That should be from front to back? I have to do a takeout on the '67R before I buy it. Thanks for the info! Helps a lot.....Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Yeah good luck I had a 73 and it didn’t look any different … Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 We went through this a while back I had an 87 U model with the straight back I do know what was up with that …. Someone else else said that wasn’t uncommon…. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 And as far as I know the +3 starts below the drip rail, so roof skin and headliner should be the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Remmers Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Your R model is not likely a +3 if its a steel dash and has the stubby exterior grab handles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted November 27, 2022 Author Share Posted November 27, 2022 Good morning, they both have a steel dash. I have the measurements for mine. I will double check the doner. Price is right they are scraping the doner so there should be other parts I can use. This is going to be a fun project! Thanks for all the help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mdmccurr Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I need a headliner for a 78 U model. Watts Mack does not have it. Anyone know where I can get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickfarms Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I am looking for an instrument panel, speedometer and tach, and two of the visor sunshades that go between that instrument panel and the dash for two steel dash Mack’s I am working on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
