64 Olds F85 Hood Question

Does anybody know if a 65 olds Cutlass hood will fit a 64. I seem to be having no luck finding a 64 hood. Thanks.

Add your zip then he can get the cost pretty easily. Also if you can ship to a commercial address and then pick it up it will save some more money as UPS can ship with a large truck

Since no one appears to have answered the original question, no it will not. The 65 hood, fenders, bumper, and grill are completely different from 64 and only interchange as a complete nose.

I've said this frequently in the past - Google Images makes it really easy for you to answer this question yourself. Here are the two - do you think they interchange? Hint: look at the front lip of the hood.

Thanks Justin for going through the hastle to try and get me the hood, but 340.00 is still alot of money. I am just going to re-use the hood I have, lots of bondo in it but it will have to do. Thanks again Justin.

I'll have to look, but I might have an extra hood. I have a buddy from Boise heading this way over Memorial Day. I'm not sure if he'll be able to help get it closer for you, but I could check.
John

If Justin's hood would work for you its in good shape. Would just need the holes drilled open again.

I would take whichever one is in the best shape, and hopefully close enough I can just road trip and come get it.

yes the 64 f85 body hood is the same for all models the difference in the club coupe is that the hood trim in the center. Club coupe is a short spear about 10” long while the rest is full length of the hood down the center.

My hood the holes for the front letters and short spear have been welded closed. so mine would need work to clean up nice. appears to be rot free and just surface rust.

John’s hood may need less work and would still have trim holes and possibly the trim needed.
I am in slc and would be willing to discuss a swap between the hoods maybe even meeting in Idaho.
why do you want to swap out the cow hood?
feel free to email me direct and I can send pics if interested. Jwta@hotmail.com

I just checked and my extra one had hood pins installed. So there's holes in the hood skin that would need to be repaired. If Salt Lake City isn't too far from you, Justin's would be better. I'm thinking it would be easier to drill filled holes than patch holes that shouldn't be there!
