Default Trunk Pans? 2 dr - 4 dr

I am looking at a 1964 Grand Prix that needs most of the trunk floor replaced(pretty thin). I happen to have a 1964 Catalina 4 door that I think has most of the trunk floor intact. Would these be even close to the same?

Thanks in advance.

I suspect there are differences, but since you have both cars the best thing to do will be to get out the tape measure and make some direct comparisons.

I'd bet they are identical but measure as Stuart said.

The wheel base is the same between GP and Catalina and the wheel base on the Catalina is the same between 2 and 4 door. I don't see why they should be different.

only Bonnevilles and Starchiefs have the longer aft behind the wheels section (quarters deck lid and trunk pan) so should be perfect fit

My thought was there may be some differences between a two door and a four door, but I just took a look at my 1961 parts book and they used the same trunk pan for all Catalinas regardless of body style (except station wagons, of course.) Assuming that also applied to 1964 cars, the trunk pan from your Catalina parts car should fit the GP.
