I will try as you suggested in your previous post, but depending on how that goes I may well take you up on your offer !

Thank you for all the comments.

The replacement headlining is now in the car. See my other thread for pictures of how I did it:

According to the Rave manual , the "fixed seat " types have cloth straps at each side , between the bottom of the backrest and the rear of the cushion , which you pull to release the backrest ; it then folds down or comes out .
This is the case on my own '51 reg car
The straps may well have been tucked back out of sight .
