Do 1972 door hinges fit a 1974 cutlass

I don't know for sure but most likely NO, 72 hinges won't work. 73-77 GM A body will work. Rebuild the hinges you have. That's what I did on my 76 442. One was wallowed out so bad I had to weld the hinge pin hole up a little on one side re-drill the hole and use new bushings. Worked out great door closes perfect with one finger. Also your car is probably missing the silencers on the door striker posts, GM, silencer, part number 9601752 they come in a bag of 10. I haven't bought them in a while but there were less than $1.25 each last time I got some. Door latch won't fit striker post tight and will rattle over every bump without these plastic sleeves installed.

X2 on rebuilding the hinge. But, you will need to improvise with the striker bolt bushing/silencer. The GM part is no longer available. Quick search on e-Bay didn't show any currently available, either. Dimensions are 9/16" I.D. x 11/16"-23/32" O.D. (seen both dimensions posted) x 3/4" lg.
