I bought a 71 Charger in pieces. In sorting through the headliner parts there are 5 bows. Headliner kits that I've seen are either 4 or 6 bows, so am I missing one? Do I have to go to a salvage yard to get one? They seem to be color coded? Where can I find the fine wire loops that are about 4" long, those are mostly missing as well. Thanks for any help you can provide.
 
Should be either 4 or 6 bows. I might have the missing one plus the wire things. Please post a pick of what you have
 
Wouldn't the 4 bow be for sunroof cars? I've been gutting a 73 charger at the yard here and I think it had 6 bows. My 72 Satellite has no headliner and maybe bows so I'm thinking of grabbing them for my car.
 
6 bows deal was just 71, ALTHOUGH 4 bows began at the end of 71 production, so you could find a 4 bows on some 71s too. After that all were 4 bows.

Sunroof cars got a molded headliner
 
I've have several 72's with the 6 bows. My 72 Rallye had 6 bows as does my 72 SSP. For 71-2 it was a model line thing. Lower line models got 4 bows and higher lines got 6. 73-4 just got 4 bows.
 
my 73& 74 have 4 bows as well , I don't recall what my 72 had. the 71 has 4 . Mopar sure did some wierd stuff

I didn't know about 72s with 6 bows.

About model thing... that could be sweet to think and a way to stablish it BUT here is a 72 SE with 4 bows

( headliner replaced, but I don't think a 6 bows car would replace it for a 4 bows just because yes! )
 
There are six bows. On mine are DS Green, Green, Green, Pink, Pink Green. Pass side are the other end of the bows are Purple, Purple, Purple, Green, Green and the last one is an orange or brown. I have had this car since early 80's and I think its original headliner.

My five are all lime green on one end and hard to tell but might be 2 purple, 2 orange and 1 yellow on the other end. It looks like 2 pairs and the left over 1 has longer curves than the other 4. Not quite sure which one I'm missing., but my colors don't match with yours for some reason. My Charger is just a plain Jane not a 500, Super Bee, or RT, if that matters.
