Anyone got a source for black headliners?

My headliner is sagging like crazy, I guess 20 years of extreme heat in summer and cold in winter has killed the cardboard backing, does anyone know if I can buy a new one? Or does anyone have a used one in good shape?

Try using spray adhesive. If you're sure it's unsalvageable, there are plenty of other options. You cannot get a used headliner, when they are taken down, they break apart.

I'm not positive about 7s, but every headliner i've torn down just decintigrates.

Well, that depends on what condition it's in, doesn't it? I pulled a headliner out of a '74 RX3 and it didn't disintegrate. In fact, I'm going to re-use it one of these days.
