I've got an Oldsmobile Cutlass F85 - 1963 - V8 215ci - automatic
My lower control arm (left side) is broken and all the replacement parts I can find are from 1964's and after.
Do you think it could be the same?
Do you think I can use a part from an other car to replace it? witch one?
Where can I find it?
Thank you for your help

What you need is a 61/62/63 Olds f85 or 61/62/63 Buick Special. 64 and newer will not work.

If you can pick it up in person I have 62 and 63 f85 part cars in Austin, Tx.

Thank you so much Henry for the information.
Actually it is difficult because I live in France. But, I have several solutions.
My brother live in Houston, I've got some fiends in Austin and normally I'll go to the LoneStar Round Up this year in April. I ask if somebody can help me. So Let's keep in touch if you please.
Are the parts you have new or used?

 

The parts I have are used and on part cars, 1 car is a 62 2dr f85 Cutlass the other car is a 63 station wagon with factory air conditioning, 3speed manual transmission and factory 15" wheels.

If we do the deal, can you disassemble it for me or do I have to do it by my own?
What about the price?

I'll pull it, $50.00. Henry

 

Ok. I'll ask my friends and tell you as soon as I know.
Thank you henry.

Note that these cars could have come with either press-in or screw-in ball joints. You should be sure the replacement arm is the same type as on the car currently.
