I recently aquired a 74 cutlass s that was in an accident. I need a new header panel, but I cannot locate one for a 74. Is there any way i could use one from an earlier body style? Or is there a replacement part out there somewhere?

Also, the passenger side door is a complete mess. I have called about 50 salvage yards so far.. no luck, I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to locate one.

Thanks

 

I have a 1974 Cutlass Supreme for parts, but I believe the S and Supreme have different header panels. I also have the top portion from a 1973 442 but I don't know if that would interchange or not. I do have nice doors but expect they would be difficult to ship very far, what part of the country are you in? Also have you found the site called www.73-77olds I'm sure someone there could tell you which if any other years would interchange with your 1974. John

 

I don't know how much would have to be used off a 73, but my dad used a 73 nose cap on a 74, after repeated parking lot kisses rendered the 74 cap unrepairable. you would think people would be careful... Any how it will bolt up, just not sure how much you need off the doner car.

 

2blue442, located in virginia, so I can only imagine what shipping would be...

Havnt found out yet if a supreme and s header panels are different, but in comparing pictures of the cars, it looks the same.

Hopefully i can fix the fenders.. I will try and get pictures on here if possible
