What other year/make/model front brake rotors work on a 1973 Grandville? A guy at a scrapyard told me his computer listed the same number for 73 grandville and 1981-85'ish chevy pickup trucks, but also noted that 1972 Grandvilles had a different part number than 1973's.
Thanks.

Also, are there any aftermarket interior supppliers for Grandvilles??

The rotors are same as '71-76 Chevy-Buick-Olds-Pontiac B series & many '72 & later big Caddys. They also are same on '71-72 & '73-mid 80's Chevy 1/2 ton trucks. Whenever I part out a Grandville or '71+ Bonneville, I always pull any thick rotors & combine them with a nice pair of '71-72 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup spindles. The early chevy pickup disc conversions will sell to '67-70 pickup guys, while the Bseries stuff...just won't. Also best to hang onto the calipers for cores, if parting out a '71-76 B series.

On '71+ Grandville & Bonneville interior parts, very little is reproduced other than carpet & headliners. A bunch of the '70's Grandvilles & Bonnevilles get picked of their drivetrain parts every year, so prob best to make a list of what you need by year & bodysyle & post it in the wanted section & someone may have just such a parts car. Believe Pontiac Dude posted some year of Grandville he was parting.

My Rig's a little old, but that don't mean she's slow.

Rough. They've been sitting outside for awhile.
