This headliner is designed for early-1966 Chevrolet Chevelle / Chevelle Malibu (including SS) 2-door hardtop/coupe models with the small sail panel roof-to-rear configuration. It does not fit late-1966 (full sail panel) or other years — for those, separate headliner patterns are required.

(3) What material is used for the replacement headliner, and is it OEM-style?
The replacement uses Tier Grain Vinyl, which is the factory original headliner material for early-1966 Chevelle / Chevelle Malibu hardtop coupes. The headliner pattern — seams, bow placement, and sail panel layout — is created to match original-spec fit and appearance for that year/model.
