66 F85/Cutlass trunk drop offs?

Does anyone know if any of the GM trunk drop offs sold will fit the 66 F85/Cutlass?

I have tried a few others and none will work without major cutting and forming to fit.
good used is the only choice.

Thanks. I really only need the passenger side and just the bottom couple of inches where it's spot welded to the bottom of the quarter panel. You think I'd be able to cut that portion off one of the ones made for other models and butt weld it in? I'm just kind of thinking finding a good used one is going to be a challenge and trying to think of an alternative.

if you only need the bottom couple inches and not the curve toward the front. Just form it up out of some 18 gauge. I use chevelle ones from amd close enough for me . I cut off the top flange and the back 8 inches. On my 29 Cutlass using these pieces. All the undercoating hides most of the metal anyway
