Welcome to the site, I moved your thread here to get you an answer to your question. Post a proper intro in the newbie section when you get a chance.

The are both C Bodies so I would think that is good. I just went through a month of searching and researching for body mount bushings on my 1965 C Body (4 door 98), and when I had the frame off I saw where the convertible has two extra bushing mounts which I would not think the Vista has. I had to measure the frame holes and bought a combination of generics from Steele Rubber, Metro, and ended up buying the main bushings from a 68 Buick electra (10 of them), and put them on a lathe, and cut down the centering rubber bushing from 1.5" to 1 1/8th. They worked perfectly. Not saying I did the right thing, but it worked on a '65 C-body.

Here is what i did for my 1955 98. I went to a wholesale / commercial rubber dealer that sells sheets of rubber in various thicknesses. I wanted my mounts to be slightly thicker by 1/8 inch as i thought the original mounts had compressed by that amount over the many decades. Mine are square where as the newer mounts are round. I also made my mounts slightly larger by 1/8 inch to overhang the steel frame support arms to provide a little more give. Cuts easily with a hacksaw and easy to polish the raw cut edges. Way cheaper than some mount kits i researched.
