Will 66 Cutlass tail lights and bumper bolt onto a 67?

In case my 'Bird is sold before I get there, does a 66 Cutlass rear bumper and tail lights bolt onto a 67? Mostly curious if the lamp housing bolts in or requires modification to the quarters. Any opinions?

Thanks,
Tim

Probably not, the 66 tail light cups are different than 67. I Used a 66 quarter on my build, had to remove the 66 tail light cup and install a 67. 67 bumpers had either a red tail light in them or a clear back up light of the same dimensions, depending on the style.

That's what I was thinking. If I go ahead and finish this car, I want to do something to customize the back of the car. Something subtle, but obvious to an Olds guy.

All that work, and Olds-savvy people will simply think you swapped the front end instead - with is MUCH simpler.
