Pillar Post Pads for 68 Cutlass S 2 Door Post

I've been checking with some of the Olds vendors and an getting conflicting answers. I've seen pillar post covers for coups, convertibles and wagons.

Are there special ones for a 68 2 door post?

If you are talking about the A-pillar cover, the Holiday Coupe and Sport Coupe have different part numbers in the parts book. 68-69 Sport Coupe are the same. 68 Holiday Coupe is unique.

Joe, Yes the A-pillar for the sport coupe. Since I posted this, I saw a different one for a 68 El Camino / sedan.

Are you able to cross reference this to a sport coupe?
Thanks

Sport Coupes are unique unto themselves. The ElCo uses the same windshield as a wagon/four door. Those are yet another different part number. I don't know if the difference between the Sport Coupe and Holiday Coupe is functional or just appearance, however. The ElCo/wagon/four door is definitely different dimensionally.

I see you have a verity of 68 models. Would you be interested in a 68 Cutlass S Ram Rod to add to your collection. I'll have one up for sale soon.

It's tempting but I don't have any more covered space. I'd have to rent another bay somewhere. Thanks for the offer..... however if the lottery smiles on me...
