I was asked if '64 HT Cadillac windshield trim could be sourced from a '64 Full size Chebby HT.
Would someone have expertise in this area? Not sure of the Caddy model, guessing that '63 & '64 is the same?
Thanks in advance!

  I don't believe that those will fit. The full size Chebby is a "B" body if I'm not mistaken, and the Cadillac is a "C" body, slightly larger, wider vehicle.
Are you in need of windshield trim for a 63/64 Cadillac?

Within the 1964 Cadillac "hardtop" body styles you have 4 very different windshields exterior "reveal" trim sets:
- 4 window sedan (6239, 6339)
- 6 window sedan & 60 Special (6229, 6239, 6039)
- coupe (6257, 6357)
- 75 series & commercial chassis 6723, 6733, 6890)
These are all very different due to different height, width and shape of windshields
When I read these generalized comments I can't help but roll my eyes.

It doesn't hurt to try to find other brand parts that are the same. I personally always look at other GM cars for like parts. It's interesting how the same exact part is up-charged because it says Cadillac. Yet has the same part number.
