Hi Allen
I was thinking yes as I can see the body line from the fender that carries into the doors on both cars. But I just measured that body line and found that it goes 6-8" further on the 4 door/wagon. The 2 door is about 38-39 inches long, the 4 door/wagon runs 45-46 going through the front and into the back door before it fades out. I learn somthing new about these cars every day! John

OK Allen, now I follow you. I was focused on the horizontal line from the top of the fender down the side of the car. But more importantly the top of the door has a different shape. The 2 door curves forward as it goes up to the glass. The 4 door/wagon is straighter. Here's a couple pictures, first of the 2 door and second of my wagon. John

Thx John!
That's exactly what I needed to know. There is a package of NOS door edges on ebay right now for 24 bucks, but I didn't want to buy something that I can't use. Maybe someone on this site can use them. Seems like a heck of a good deal to me!
