    I found a 1972 Buick LeSabre, 4 door hard top 2 hours away from me. The guy was going to put it in a demo derby but saw an ad i posted on kijiji.com for a parts car and called me.

    I currently have a 72 Buick Centurion 2 door Convertible, and basically i just need some re-assurance on what parts will be compatible.

    This is what i need

    Rear quarter panels. Just from looking at picture on the net, it seems like i would be able to partially use the ones from the LeSabre, but not too sure yet.

    I also like the trunk and hood on the LeSabre better than mine, plus mine has numerous dents on it, so i need to know if the LeSabre trunk lid and hood will bolt right onto my centurion

    Also:
    Instrument cluster trim
    Seat belts
    Rear Seat
    Gas Tank
    Front and Rear Bumper
    Passenger rear quarter glass? Dont think it will, but just checking

    I think thats basically all i need advice on, to see if its compatible or not.

    Thanks in advance

    Most of the sheet metal from the doors rearward won't be interchangeable. Maybe the trunk lid .

    Trunk lid is good, but the 71 has louvers that the 72 does not. It will work just fine, though.q
