If you like the general style of the Cutlass panels except for the woodgrain, you could buy some vinyl wrap and stick it over the woodgrain. That is what I did. I bought the vinyl on eBay and the installation was simple. Cut rough shape, stick it on, smooth it out and trim the excess.

If your interested, I can post a pic later.

To answer your direct question, yes with some messaging. I had a semi custom interior fabricated for my Cutlass, I did away wit some of the features I disliked. Recovered all panels, customstock style headliner, stock style carpet, recovered pkg tray, etc...

The Chevelle door panels for same bodystyle will fit as will those for Pontiac and Buick A-body.

Get panels for a 70 Cutlass S. Those have little to no woodgrain trim, and you keep an Oldsmobile presence instead of having a damn bowtie looking you in the face and looking cheap.

Awww shucks, you're making me blush....
For about 25% the price of the repros, you can make your own. Just standard power tools needed. Or if you wanted to get by on the cheap, just use any self adhesive overlay. I used carbon fiber, but there a dozen different ones to choose from.

I've got a set of PUI door panels that have the woodgrain badly wrinkled If you wanted to use these as a platform and replace the woodgrain section I'd sell them real cheap! Let me know if you'd like to see pictures.
