65 cutlass body panel question

I'm looking to replace the rear filler panel in between the back glass and deck lid.I thought the lemans,skylark was the same,i called OPG they said the gto was different.Does any one know what fits the 64-65 cutlass or is it unique cutlass only.Oh i want the us made panel only not the thinner cheapo china crap.

I read that tread thats why i was looking to get a Gto panel but the guy at OPG told me it was different, i gave him the part # he said it was different.He not in as many words said if it was wrong i was stuck with it.For 179.95 i'm not gambling with that so i'll take my business elsewhere.

Well the problem here us that there are not many aftermarket parts for these earlier years . And they don't want to lead you astray when they don't know. It also talks about it in the bro442 sight

Chevelle panel is longer. The GTO panel is the same. I used it on mine 8 years ago.

I know the chevelle panel is different from what i've read on the net, gto and buick was the supposed to be the same,I don't get it when you ask a supposed part retailer and they tell you you are on the hook if it doesn't fit.

Thats BS. You can tell them you are making a snowboard out of it, doesnt matter. Buy the GTO piece it works.
