Years ago, some one had informed me that all '65-'70 Full size frames were the same, they however, were sadly mistaken.

In the course of trying to find a replacement convertible top for my '66 Imp, I tried a '70 LeMans, which was too short, a '69 Cadillac which was too long and then found a '66 Olds that appears to be just the right length.

My problem is that the support channel is totally rusted away wheel well to wheel well (too many years in Hawaii's salty environment!)

I think that if you stick with looking for the '65-'66 models, you will have better success.

Good luck!
