A pillar similarities

Post by jonny0666 » Mon Apr 28, 2014 5:49 pm

I have rust where my drivers side A pillar meets the body. Does anybody know the compatibility of a 70-74 E body repro A pillar? Would this work at all?

Sorry,
That's a tough one to answer. I don't think the windshields interchange between a B body and an E body, so I am guessing that the A pillars are not the same. Similar maybe, but not the same. Wish I had a better answer for you. Good Luck!
Scott.

My money is bet on the answer being No.
Could you please measure each part and let us know?

Will do. I have a replacement roof. I really hoping on the idea the the rake or angle is the same as I only need to bottom 3/4 of the A pillar... But I'll let you guys know! Thanks.
