The front bar off of a 73-77 A body will fit the 65. The limiting factor is the horse shoes brackets that hold the bar and bushings to the frame. The center to center of the bolt holes is closer together on the bracket on the 65.

My 67 GTO stock car in my signature pics had an 1 1/8" bar from a 73 GTO on it The only modification I needed to make is another set of holes to fasten the brackets to the frame because of the spacing of the bolt holes. I used 2 of the original rear holes, and fabbed the front ones to fit.

A second gen F body bar also fits and can be had from stock Trans Am parts up to 1 1/4". You'll run into the same bolt attachment problem using F body parts easily addressed by drilling 2 holes at the correct spacing.

The 1 1/8" 73 front bar along with a 7/8" rear bar from a 70 GTO worked perfectly together. I won 13 races within 2 years with that car. handling was outstanding with that combo.
