I have a 66 Commander 4 door, 6 cyl auto. A guy came up to me in a parking lot to ask about the car. He ended up telling me that he had a 64 Stude for sale, and was I interested. I asked what condition it was in, and he said it needed restoration and had been sitting a while (which here in the Northeast usually means it is outdoors and it has sunk about 10 inches into the mud and has extensive rust...but every once in a while you get lucky and find a decent "barn fresh" car). So I said I'd like to take a look at it, and how much did he want for it. He said $300.00. I could not ask more questions as he said had to be going, but I got his tele no.
So, I have to call him midweek to work out a time for me to look at it. If it ends up being a pretty rough parts car and not worth restoring, what parts would interchange with my 66? (I know the grill, head lights, tail lights, trim, etc are different). I'd like to have a spare windshield, would the 64 fit the 66? How about the bumpers, front end parts, sheetmetal, radiator, rear axle, steering box? I know the 64 will not have the "chevy" engine mine has, but if it has the auto trans will that interchange with the auto trans in my 66? Any responses would be appreciated.
