no1kicker Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 If one were to take a cutty and remove the fenders, nose and hood, would it be possible to replace with the same parts from a GP? If one were to remove all the interior panels and dash from a cutty, same question. I'm thinking of something I've always wanted to do, just wanting to see if it's possible without extreme diffuculty and money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitcor Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 technically, yes, though I imgine things wont line up 100%, youll have to do some triming and maybe some creative mounting to make it all fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockgp Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 i'm doing the interior swap. the door panels from the two won't interchange. and depending on the dash, it won't either. all my stuff is from a 97 cs, going into a 90 gp.

Justin Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 No it won't. the whole front end bolts up perfectly, as does the hood, but the line between the front fenders and doors is way off. If you put a GP door on there then it's off with the back fender and won't shut. Wish I would have taken some pics when I was messing around with that.

gimp19 Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 I think its actually a good thing that alot of body panels, glass and interior piece's dont interchange among w's. I hate it when car companies like Chrysler have 3 differant makes (Chrysler, Plymouth and Dodge) and all the cars are exactly the same with differant badges, it makes no sense. Atleast there starting to make all there cars differant now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90TGP Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 You can swap the front ends of the 4thgen Camaro and Firebird. It looks a little weird, but it has been done. GM had a test vehicle set-up like that once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitcor Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 swapping will become more and more common since GM is trying to consildate all thier makes onto 3-4 platforms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 97 CS has a complete set of leather seats from a 94 GTP....bolted right up...The car didn't have the panel on the doors or in the back, so I couldn't try to see if those fit..

stockgp Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 the doors are different underneath the door panels. they won't interchange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
