Sadly no they are not the same.

Visually similar but I believe they are not interchangeable car to car. In other words, your 1965 rear bumper won't fit your 1966 car and vice versa.

Post Bumpers

Rear wagon bumpers only fit a wagon, not anything else!

Stationwagon is all by itself.

Imposter, you might ck with Chip at TriCity Plating in Elizabethtiwn TN. TriCity has a huge amount of bumper cores & may have a really nice rear bumper core that they could professionally triple plate. A fellow PY'er & I had 4 bumpers done @ TriCity last year, very pleased.
