Friend of mine has a 74 Charger factory BB 4spd car with a sunroof that we are starting to put back together, and he needs a headliner. Are there any sources for the correct hardboard one or an ABS plastic one like that is offered for an A body like the ones Dante's sells?

About the only thing I could offer you in the way of a headliner board is my repro Challenger SE fiberglass headliner, the 71-4 B body and 70-1E body are very close in cabin size/shape, the Challenger SE headliner is approx 50" wide and 55" long front to back, the boards are shipped without any of the overhead console cut outs (1 piece for custom applications should the customer want to do something different), same thickness as the factory fiber boards, maybe with a little rework it can be fitted?

If your interested send me a PM

did '74 Chargers have a one piece "solid" headliner originally?

Dan, IIRC the 73-4 standard headliner is 4 bows, the 71-2 is 6 bows, the 71-4 sunroof 3rd generation B bodies use a 2 bow headliner, the 71-2 cars have these monstrously heavy solid urethane bolsters that surround the sunroof cassette/tub opening that get upholstered in headliner mat'l, the 73-4 hand crank sunroof cars have a perforated fiberboard that clips to the sunroof cassette/tub that the headliner tucks onto and is retained with windlace, the A bodies are very similar

There's also a perforated fiber board for the sun roof sliding panel that gets upholstered as well....IIRC the hand crank cars also have a "privacy" panel that slides by hand from the cassette/tub if you don't want to close the panel but want some air flow, IIRC that panel is perforated and covered in a very thin vinyl almost decal type covering and colored to match the headliner...

I don't generally deal with the hand crank sunroofs, just the electric 69-72 models

Actually just 71s got 6 bows... and not all of them as far I recall. Mostly earlier production.

Watching this, I know of several, including me, who need one for our late B bodies.
