Title: 66 Deville deck (trunk) lid replacement question
Post by: stratogeezer on April 22, 2013, 01:32:41 PM
Hi folks,

I've got a '66 Deville convertable that has a decent amount of rust on the rear deck lid. I am considering replacing the original lid with a replacement, versus repairing the original.

So my question is - what other models and years might offer a deck lid that would replace and properly fit in place of my originalmy original? 

Thanks!

Thanks Warren. Does the Hollander guide also say what years used this same trunk lid?  I assume that trunk lid may have stayed the same for possibly several years.

Thanks much

Rob,
Warren gave you the correct info. It fits 1966 ONLY. Don't assume things  will fit. It will cause you grief.
HTH, Bob
