Looking for 5 Headliner Bow Set for E-body Barracuda

[SW mopar]

I am looking for a full set of headliner bows. Need all 5 bows. When i bought my project it didn't have a headliner & bows were gone.

What year is the car ? The year of the car makes a difference. The car will either have slots for little triangular cups to sit in, or holes for the rods to go directly in.


They are available in reproduction if you can't find originals

1971

Is it slots or holes ? 1971 is the change over year....still five bows, but two totally different styles...

If it is the slotted type that accepts the cups, I have 4 of the 5 bows you are seeking. I do not have the rear bow. If interested let me know.

Or you can use brake lines , it works. I have used them in the past.

Good Luck!

Yeah, had to look at car again and i have the 3 hole in triangle pattern. So there are no clips, the bows go straight into the holes?

Unfortunately that puts you right in that grey area as for reproductions....Of course the masters behind the repros make a 5 piece "clip style" set and only the 4 piece "hole style" set...

So if your sure your car has 5 sets of the three holes, then you need to find originals or at least one extra front bow...the first three bows from the front are all the same.

I remember when ordering the headliner (haven't gotten it yet) in 71 they changed to a 4 bow headliner. If so that that is why there isn't a five bow set with the dog leg on end to go into the holes? I don't know because when i got the car there wasn't a headliner nor any bows to reference

[anlauto]

1971 is the change over year for the "cup style" to the "dog leg style" BOTH having 5 bows....it wasn't until late 72 into 73 that they went to the 4 bows.... The reproduction company is not accurate in their description. To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a 1971 Cuda model with a four bow headliner...but of course, I could be wrong.

[SW mopar]

Company is legendary. They offer both a 4 bow (71-74) and 5 bow headliner (70-71)

For headliners, yes...but personally I've never seen a 1971 Cuda with a 4 bow headliner, except a rebodied one running around Cottage country...

[SW mopar]

That's oddly specific. LMAO

In one of the Facebook posts i got this info:
"I had 4 in my '71...here is the diagram I drew as I removed them...late May '71 build..."

I attached his photo. Mine is a march built.

My friend who has a dec-70 built has 5 bows with dog leg ends

Anything is possible I guess...you just have to figure out what works best for your car.
