Is the 70 and 71/72 Deck lids different on a 442?
I got a cutlass one I was going to use but it is different then my 71 442 , it has dimples where the trim was where mine was smooth.

 

There are very different lids for the 2 door “fast back” 442 / S models and “notch back” Supreme models. The overall lids are the same for each model, but the trim is different and likely the hole punchings differ as well.

 

I think there was a running change internally.

 

I know the convert and 4 door are different from the coupe. But just wondering about 70 to 71/72

 

The trim was different between the years, and also between different models, such as F-85 and S. Seems I recall there were several different trim versions on the various S models as well.

 

There are THREE different trunklids on the 70-72 cars.

 

Mine is square

 

The round corners are on 4 door and convertibles.

 

So all the lids fit on all cars they’re not different sizes? I thought the convert and 4 door were different sizes than the coupes?

 

How did you get that from this thread?

 

Finally caught Joe P. making a boo-boo. One of those cars is a Chevelle!

 

Hahahahah just seeing the comments on trim and hole punch’s

Thanks Joe

 

Damn, you got me.

 

Well, blind pig, acorn ... it had to happen eventually.
