(1) Which vehicles does this headliner fit?
This headliner fits 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle / Chevelle Malibu (including SS) 2-door hardtop / coupe models that use the 6-bow roof configuration. It does not fit other body types (sedan, wagon) or hardtop coupes with 5-bow roof structure — those require different headliner patterns.

(3) What materials/finishes are used, and are they period-correct?
The headliner is offered in Bedford Grain Vinyl — the original factory-style material for Chevelle/Chevelle Malibu SS with front bucket seats, and Basketweave Grain Vinyl for versions with a front bench seat. This ensures that the replacement interior headliner matches the original look and texture from 1968.

(4) Does the kit include headliner bows, visor mounting hardware, or other hardware?
No — the headliner does not include metal bows, bow chrome, or visor mounting hardware (visor bars, mounting brackets). That means if your vehicle’s original hardware is missing or damaged, you’ll need to source correct-period replacement hardware separately (for example, our New Metal Bow Kit, available for purchase separately).
