August 14, 200619 yr One basic chassis/platform from GM. It has four differnt variations including two different ones that are both two doors & two differentvariations that are four doors. They're all almost exactly the samefrom the A-pillar froward and made by the same manufacturer. None of their green-houses are even close to interchangable.Two completely different rear bumpers & tail lights shared by one two door & one four door. A couple of people on this forum own one. Name the four cars.
August 14, 200619 yr Hmmm...sounds like maybe the '86-90? FWD Buick LeSabre and Electra, and Olds 88 & 98. Each pair had 2 different 2dr greenhouses, 2 different 4dr greenhouses, but basically the same front clips on each pair (except for grille and some trim).
August 14, 200619 yr It's gotta either be the early W-bodies. Lumina, Grand Prix, Cutlass, Regalor the early 80s B-bodies, Caprice, Parisianne, Eighty Eight, Electra
August 15, 200619 yr Author This might be anothert one of those questions where there is two or three legitimate answers but if you read it very carefully there's but ONE correct answer. SAME manufacturer for all four cars. As in they're all the same Brand.

El Camino and Malibu wagon share share rear bumpers and taillights while the 2-door and 4-door Malibu share taillights.

If I restrict mine to Buick or Olds it works.. The El Camino and Malibu one would work also I think. Edited August 15, 200619 yr by moltar

Name the four cars. 180238[/snapback] I vote for mid-70's Chevelle/Malibu/El Camino 4 door: Chevelle/ Malibu Collonade sedan and Malibu/Laguna Estate Wagon 2 door: Malibu Collonade and el Camino no greenhouses interchangeable and as hudson pointed out, El Camino and the wagon shared rear bumpers (with the lights in them), as did the Malibu coupe and sedan
August 15, 200619 yr Author Correct. You goys got it. A-body Chevrolets from the mid 70s to the early 80s. Too bad the Malibu coupe was discontinued in 1981.
