  I have had good luck using an ozone generator to take out odors out of car 
  interiors.Crytal Air Inc. 1-888-424-7103 of Canada has them for sale. They 
  also have an odor spray that they are very proud of and they say it works 
  better then fabreze. P.S. Last Thurs. Sherie and I went to Ballard and 
  bought Steve Kaufman's Magnette from John Davidson.It was so cute and nice 
  we had to buy it. It needs some tweeking, but it is in the right spot with 
  the right guy . Dave Wahl , Wenatchee

  While all the ideas presented may help, I would look at car detailers
  who specialize in this sort of thing.  The headliner may not be the
  only thing that is harboring the smell.  Carpets, seats and other
  surfaces are probably contributing as well.  Time and ventilation
  help a lot.  If you do a google search for "fabric headliner smoke
  cleaning" or something like that, you will see a lot of
  suggestions.  Not all are applicable to the soft, unsupported fabric
  of a Magnette, but some may be.
