65 Bonneville 2dr fastback same as 65 2+2?
Hi guys. Can anyone tell me if a 65 Bonneville 2 dr fastback is the same wheelbase and body panels as a 65 2+2/Catalina fastback?
thanks, Chris |

121" for the Catalina, 124" for the Bonneville. I would not call them fastbacks, as they have a full trunk. Just a sport coupe or 2dr HT would be more accurate.
oldride.com has some decent spec info out there. https://www.oldride.com/library/1965...onneville.html https://www.oldride.com/library/1965..._catalina.html

What do you want to interchange? Some parts do, some don't.

The front fenders, hood, front and rear bumpers, and doors are the same. I think the windshield and rear window are as well. Not sure about the trunk lid. The rear quarter panels are different, but with some work you may be able to use parts of them from a Bonneville for patches on a 2+2.

Trunk lid will not interchange between bonne and catalina. Another tidbit is you need to use 4dr trunk lid for convertible

I found one for sale. But if it is bigger than a 2+2 I don't think I would enjoy it as much.

It's only a few inches longer. You will love it!
