I think you'll have to find a parts car to get the trunk pan for this car. A Southwestern desert car would be ideal and since it's big car, may not break the bank to buy it.

I don't know if Buick Electra or Cadillac cross over. I kinda doubt it; there was usually just enough difference between them to where things won't fit right.

bump.... I have 1973 Ninety Eight and I need a truck deck. I am in PA. I found a few numbers for some junk yards in AZ. Does anyone know of a company that still handles (or can order) body parts. I also need the fender wheel cover for one side and the plastic grill piece that goes around the headlights..... any help would be, well very helpful.... thanks

Again, no one makes repro sheet metal or patch panels for these cars. Good desert used parts are your only option, unless you happen to stumble over someone's NOS part.

Well thanks anyway then... :-)

I'm a little confused by this. I have a '73 Custom Cruiser, which has the same front end as your car, and there is no plastic piece around the headlights. There is a chrome-plated metal trim piece that surrounds the two headlights on either side. This thing often gets pitted after so many years as it has on my car. I'd love to get my hands on a better one if I could find one for not too much money.

The only plastic piece I see anywhere around there is the piece of trim painted to match the car that goes under the headlights, fits up into the rear part of the bumper on each side, and is held in place by those plastic trim panel clips you press in. Is that what you're talking about?

I've attached a photo of the front of '73 98.
