Default Part interchange help needed

Hello,

Would anyone know if the interior moldings for a 63 big Chevy wagon will fit a 63 Bonne wagon?
Specifically, the upper moldings for the fixed rear side windows (in the "way back" part) of the wagon.

Thanks in advance!

Find someone with a Hollander interchange manual. That info should be in there.

No expertise here, but just guessing that the longer Bonnie wagon would be different. Maybe the Chevy and a Cat wagon would be the same. I have a Hollander's in the garage that I'll go check, but I don't remember items like this trim being listed.

Oddly enough, the Bonneville and Catalina wagons are on the same body, the only difference is the trim!

My Hollander's had no listings for interior trim pieces.

I believe they will. The roof was pretty much the same . I used a Chevy headliner for my longroof.

Perhaps someone can look up the window glass interchange, if they are the same for Pontiac and Chevy (and I believe they are) the trim pieces should interchange as well.
